Castfish John

• D

(D) Momma said don't go (G) near that (D) river 
 
Don't be hanging round ole Catfish (A) John 
 
But come the (D) morning I'd (G) always (D) be there 
 
Walking in his footsteps in that (A) sweet delta (D) dawn 
 
 
1st verse 
 
Born a (G) slave in the town of (D)Vicksburg 
 
Traded (G) for a chestnut (A) mare 
 
But he (G) never spoke in (D) anger 
 
Though his load was (A) hard to (D) bear 
 
CHORUS 
 
2nd verse 
 
Let me (G) dream of another (D) morning 
 
Of a (G) time so long (A) ago 
 
Where the (G) sweet magnolias (D) blossom 
 
And the cotton fields were (A) white as snow
