[00:00:01] Written by：Bob Mcdill/Allen Reynolds

[00:00:05] Momma said don't go near that river

[00:00:12] Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John

[00:00:19] Come the morning I'd always be there

[00:00:25] Walking in his footsteps

[00:00:27] In the sweet delta dawn

[00:00:31] Let me dream of another morning

[00:00:37] And a time so long ago

[00:00:43] When the sweet magnolia blossom

[00:00:49] Cotton fields were white as snow

[00:00:54] Catfish John was a river hobo

[00:01:00] Living by the river bed

[00:01:06] Thinking back I still remember

[00:01:11] I was proud to be his friend

[00:01:18] Momma said don't go near that river

[00:01:24] Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John

[00:01:31] Come the morning I'd always be there

[00:01:37] Walking in his footsteps

[00:01:39] In the sweet delta dawn

[00:01:50] Born a slave in the town of vicksburg

[00:01:56] Traded for a chestnut mare

[00:02:02] But still he never spoke in anger

[00:02:08] Though his load was hard to bear

[00:02:15] Momma said don't go near that river

[00:02:20] Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John

[00:02:28] Come the morning I'd always be there

[00:02:33] Walking in his footsteps

[00:02:35] In the sweet delta dawn

[00:02:41] Momma said don't go near that river

[00:02:47] Don't be hanging 'round old catfish John
