Sheet Metal Catfish
© words and music by C. Stewart April 22, 2018
Well I owed a little money to Jimmy The Hand
Eight of nine hundred, maybe a grand
But I was broke, didn't have a dime
I was running out of time
So I closed my eyes and I made a wish
I hope that Jimmy don't take, my fish
Sheet metal catfish in a bowl
Well it broke my heart but it sure beats dying
When he took my fish I started crying
I used to watch em splash in the water
But now they splash for Jimmy's daughter
So beautiful and so rare
They do the back stoke the flip-a-roo
My best friends, perform for you
I used to watch em splash in the water
But now they splash for Jimmy's daughter
Now I close my eyes and I made a wish
I hope that Jimmy takes care of my fish
Sheet metal catfish in a bowl
I close my eyes and I made a wish
I hope that Jimmy takes care of my fish
Sheet metal catfish in a bowl
Oh so beautiful
Oh so beautiful
And so rare
