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
