Paroles

YEAH
WELL I WISH
I WAS A CATFISH
SWIMIN' IN THE, THE DEEP BLUE SEA
I HAVE ALL YOU PRETTY WOMEN
FISHIN' AFTER ME
FISHIN' AFTER ME
FISHIN' AFTER ME
OH YEAH
OH YEAH
OH YEAH
YEAH
WELL I WENT DOWN
TO MY GIRLFRIENDS HOUSE
AND I SAT ALONE ON HER BLUE STEP
AND SHE SAYS A "COME IN OUTCHA MAN AND JUST YOUR LOVE"
I JUST NOW LEFT
I JUST NOW LEFT

WHO YEAH
WHO YEAH
OH YEAH
OH YEAH

WELL THERE'S TWO
TWO TRAINS RUNNIN'
BUT THERE'S NOT A ONE THAT'S GOIN' MY WAY
YOU KNOW THERE'S A, ONE TRAIN RUNNING AT MIDNIGHT
THE OTHER ONE LEAVE JUST FOR DAY
LEAVE JUST FOR DAY
OH YEAH
OH YEAH
OH YEAH
OH YEAH

Notes

Enregistré lors de leur visite en Hollande en novembre 1967. Jimi introduit toujours cette chanson comme étant un blues de Muddy Waters, alors que son origine remonte bien plus loin, à l'époque des champs de cotons, bien avant les premiers enregistrements blues
