Fight and scratch fight and scratch that's all we ever do
|
There surely must be more to love than to fight and scratch with you
|
You you to fight and scratch with you
|
Well you just bought a foal last month now you want a wig
|
It looks like you couldn't understand my paycheck ain't that big
|
Well what about the dough you lose in them poker games downtown
|
I figured you'd mention that smart aleck
|
Yeah and that brand new boat and that fishin' gear
|
But no uhhuh I don't reckon that'd count really
|
Fight and scratch fight and scratch...
|
Sometimes I swear I think that you're the devil in disguise
|
Cause when you're mad you oughta see the fire fly from your eyes
|
Well you don't look so cute yourself when you're mad at me
|
And if you don't like the way I look then you know how to leave Bossy Catfish
|
Fight and scratch fight and scratch...
|
Well I love you and you love me but we're always findin' fault
|
But the way we fight you wouldn't know that we had any love at all
|
We just fight like cats and dogs we'll leave then come right back
|
For what excitement would we have if we didn't fight and scratch
|
Fight and scratch fight and scratch...
|
Why don't you drop dead oh you'd like me to and I'll live forever just for spite
|
Why don't you keep your big mouth shot
|
Well why don't you just make me if you think you're big enough
|
Yeah and I could whip you with both hands tied behind
|
Yeah you just try it with me and I'll knock your brains out
|
With a stick of soap that's good Catfish
|
What's a catfish why'd you call me that
|
They're all mouth and no brains boy that's really good
|
It's all I can do to keep from laughin' hah
|
That's funny you sure are a fynny little fellow
