Recorded on May 15, 2007 at HairyLarryLand Credits: Producer - Larry Heyl Performer - Hairy Larry Comments: The Blues Fest house band is called The Mudcats. We host jam sessions and fill in when we have an empty slot. This year at Sunday In The Park we are featuring Mike "Whisker Fish" Dollins and The Big Blue Cats. So this song is dedicated to both bands and I plan on singing it with both bands in the next two weeks. It's a real fish story in the tall tales tradition with Biblical allusions, singing fish, and everything. Lyrics: Fish Story copyright 2007 by Larry Heyl I know you heard a fish story or two Last time I went fishin I heard something new I pulled in a whiskerfish I was shakin in my shoes When that old mudcat started singin the blues. He said, Now I got you, hook, line, and sinker Cause the fish you just caught will get you all distraught You better throw me back before this old mudcat Gets all fishy in your face and turns into a stinker. So I was troubled, didn't know what to do Cause I had a hankering for mudcat stew. But that whiskerfish said, If you try to eat me. You'll be caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Because chorus You heard about Jonah now that's quite a tale If you try to eat me you'll think you swallowed a whale Cause I'll blow up big like a polar bear And bust my ass right outta there. He said, chorus Suddenly I didn't feel so well I looked past that whiskerfish straight into hell As I grabbed my knife and started cuttin him free He stuck his whiskers right into me Singin, chorus I know you heard a fish story or two You probably thought some of them weren't true But let me tell you now, you'll be shakin in your shoes When that old mudcat starts a singin the blues.
