Lyrics:

See that cat on the mountaintop
He's gonna rock baby, just won't stop
I say wade in the water
Wade down in the water
You wade in the water
Everybody wade in the water

See that gal dressed in white?
She likes to wade in, all night
I say wade in the water
You wade down in that water
Wade in the water
The hound dog's wading in the water
See you wading in the water

See that cat dressed in green?
He's a poor little cat that I ever could see
I say you wade in the water
Wade down in the water
Wade in the water
Everybody wade in the water
See that cat dressed in blue?
You know he's a-waiting to show you through
I say wade now in the water, children
Way down in the water, children
Wade in the water
The Hound Dog's wading in the water
And Big mama wading in the water
Now the whole day wade in the water
I say wade
Oh, yes sir, yes sir, yes sir
In the water
