Verse 1
(D major) Ol' catfish in the lake,
we (A major) called (D major) him Big Jim
When I was a kid,
my only wish was to get my (G major) line in (A major) him
Skipped (G major) church one Sunday (D major) rowed
out and throw'd (G major) in my line (D major)
Jim took that (G major) hook pole and
(D major) me right (G major) over the side (A major)
Went driftin' (G major) down past old
(D major) tires and rusty (G major) cans of (D major) beer
The (G major) angel of the lake (D major)
whispered (G major) in my (A major) ear
"Before you (G major) chose your wish (D major) son
You (G major) better think first (D major)
With (G major) every wish (B minor) there comes (A major) a (D major) curse"
Verse 2
I fell (D major) in love with beautiful Doreen
She was the prettiest thing this
old (G major) town'd ever seen (A major)
I cour (G major) ted (D major) her and I made (G major) her mine (D major)
But I grew jealous whenever
an (G major) other man'd
(D major) Come walkin' (G major) down the (A major) line
And my jeal (G major) ousy made me treat (D major)
her mean (G major) and cruel (D major)
She sighed, "Bobby (G major) oh (D major) Bobby
you're such (G major) a fool (A major)
Don't you know before
you choose (G major) your (B minor) wish
(G major) You'd better think (D major) first
'Cause with (G major) every (B minor) wish there comes (A major) a
(D major) curse"

Verse 3
These days I sit (D major) around and laugh
At the many rivers I've crossed
But on the far banks there's
always another forest
Where a man (G major) can get (A major) lost
Well (G major) there in the high trees
love's bluebird glides (D major)
Guiding us 'cross (G major) to another
(D major) river on the (G major) other (A major) side
And there someone (G major) is waitin' (D major)
with a (G major) look in her (D major) eyes
And though my (G major) heart's grown (D major) weary
And more than a (G major) little bit shy (A major)
Tonight I'll (G major) drink from her waters (D major)
to quench (G major) my thirst (D major)
And leave the angels to worry
With (G major) every wish
