Come on in..said the man
Let me tell you 'bout The Grand Lure
Guaranteed to catch the monster cat called "Wings"
It's a lure I'm here to sell you,
And, it's one that works so well, you
Should really buy it, for good luck it brings..

Thanks, you say..as you pay
For the fancy colored bright spoon
From your boat..you cast it,
Soon feel the strong line tug you..
It screams the brake and lever
And tows you down the river,
Hold on tight and fight is all
That you can do..

Lost your hat, what a cat!
As he flops there, in the net, you're
Exhausted, grab an ice cold can of beer..
Then, take long proud looks at that fish
Must be "Wings" the famous catfish
You can't wait to show the guys
..hear 'em cheer..

Huge, it bounds..eighty pounds
Dock the boat and anchor to shore
Lug your fish up to the bait store, proud to show
It's closed down, but one old angler,
Says, sometimes, folks see a man there
He's old Catfish John,
Who died ten years ago..
