A D Mama said don't go near that river A E Don't be hanging round old Catfish John A D Come the morning I'd always be there A E A Walking in his footsteps in the sweet delta dawn
D A Take me back to another morning D A To a time so long ago D A Where the sweet magnolia blossomed A E A Cotton fields were white as snow Catfish John was a river hobo Lived and died by the river's bend Looking back I still remember I was proud to be his friend -Chorus- Born a slave in the town of Richmond Traded for a chestnut mare Lord he never spoke in anger Though his load was hard to bear -Chorus- -Chorus- Walking in his footsteps in the sweet Delta dawn
