I won't ever forget
No matter how much they want to make me
I won't ever forget
Every little thing that you taught me
Broken glass family affairs
Where was my dad when nobody was there
Couldn't really tell what was normal
Got made fun of cause I like purple
But to you, you didn't really seem to care
Always telling me I'll be a billionaire
Most were just bound to walk off
Sitting here crying down at the boardwalk
Swim on little catfish
I ain't reeling you in again
I thought we would catch it
Saying goodbye to my friend
The only way I know the world is evil
They don't have time machines to go see these people
Just swim on little catfish
I won't ever forget
Classmates but no one there to class me
I won't ever forget
Every single time that they attacked me
Growing up different shouldn't be this hard
Nobody understands when you're tattered and scarred
Maybe tomorrow I'll catch a bass
Didn't know that Tuesday would be the last
Swim on little catfish
I ain't reeling you in again
I thought we would catch it
Saying goodbye to my friend
The only way I know the world is evil
They don't have time machines to go see these people
Just swim on little catfish
Straight out of bed could not believe
My best friend really made his leave
We were just out fishing just that last Sunday
Never lose my faith that I'll see him one day
He had a wife and a family and a kid that he loved
And I know he's always watching from the mighty above
And I know my skies will never be grey
Always gonna miss my Papaw Ray
Swim on little catfish
Swim on, swim on
