Desire session 3, Columbia Studio E, NYC - 29.jul.1975
Lazy stadium night
Catfish on the mound
''Strike three'', the umpire said
Batter have to go back an' sit down
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
Used to work on Mr. Finley's farm
But the old man wouldn't pay
So he packed his glove and took his arm
An' one day he just ran away
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
Come up where the yankees are
Dressed up in a pin-stripe suit
Smoke a custom-made cigar
Wear an alligator boot
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
Carolina born and bred
Love to hunt the little quail
Got a hundred-acre spread
Got some huntin' dogs for sale
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
Reggie Jackson at the plate
Seein' nothin' but the curve
Swing too early or too late
Got to eat what Catfish serve
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
Even Billy Martin grins
When the fish in the game
Every season twenty wins
Gonna make the Hall of Fame
Catfish, million dollar man
Nobody can throw the ball like Catfish can.
