Big Jim – Fivepenny Piece
C G
A famous Scottish Angling Club arranged to hold a match
G C
And five pounds offered as the prize to him with the best catch.
C7 F
Jock Thompson said, 'for catching fish, good bait is what you need'
G C
So he got to work at once big worms to try to breed.
C G
He fed his pets on powdered milk, On baby food and whiskey,
G C
And as the great day grew near, they grew quite fat and frisky.
C7 F
His favourite worm he called Big Jim, He really was a picture,
G C
You'd have thought he'd crossed a conga eel with a ruddy boa constrictor.
Chorus
C
Big Jim were a worm, were a great big worm,
C G
were a great big, bright red, bloody red worm.
G
Large and fat, and just like a picture,
G C
Crossed with an eel and a boa constrictor.
C7
Fed him on whiskey, which made him frisky,
F
On pies and a pint or two,
G
Big Jim were a worm, were a great big worm,
G C
were a great big, beautiful, bloody red worm.
C G
Well the day arrived, the places drawn, and soon the fishing started
G C
It was a sin to puncture Jim and Jock was broken hearted.
C7 F
But that five pounds must be won, he'd promised one to his daughter
G C
And so the dirty deed was done And Jim thrown in the water.
Chorus
C
Big Jim were a worm, were a great big worm,
C G
were a great big, bright red, bloody red worm.
G
Large and fat, and just like a picture,
G C
Crossed with an eel and a boa constrictor.
C7
Fed him on whiskey, which made him frisky,
F
On pies and a pint or two,
G
Big Jim were a worm, were a great big worm,
G C
were a great big, beautiful, bloody red worm.
C G
Some caught roach and some caught bream, And some caught rainbow trout.
G C
Some caught eels and one caught seals, but most of them caught nowt.
C7 F
Jock he waited patiently to give Jim chance to work
G C
And in a while his float did sink and give the rod a jerk.
C G
Well the fight went on for hours and hours Jock could'na quench his thirst
G C
But Big Jim being the worm he were, that fish surrendered first.
C7 F
And then the judge came running up and with him brought his scales,
G C
When he saw the fish, he said, 'Chuck it back - We're no accepting whales'!
Chorus
