C
Oh this is the place where the fishermen gather
F C A7 G7
In oil-skins and boots and the Cape hats batten down;
C F G7 C
All sizes of figures with squid lines and jiggers,
C G7 C
They congregate here on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
Some are workin' their jiggers, while others are yarnin',
F C A7 G7
There's some standin' up and there's more lyin' down;
C F G7 C
While all kinds of fun, jokes and drinks are begun,
C G7 C
As they wait for the squid on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
There's men of all ages and boys in the bargain,
F C A7 G7
There's old Billy Cave and there's young Raymond Brown;
C F G7 C
There's Rip, Red and Gory out here in the dory,
C G7 C
A runnin' down squires on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
There's men from the harbor, there's men from the tickle,
F C A7 G7
And all kinds of motor-boats, green, gray and brown;
C F G7 C
Right yonder is Bobby and with him is Nobby,
C G7 C
He's chawin' hard tack on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
God bless my soul, list to, there's Skipper John Champy,
F C A7 G7
He's the best hand at squid jiggin' here, I'll be bound;
C F G7 C
Hello, what's the row? Why he's jiggin' one now,
C G7 C
The very first squid on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
The man with the whiskers is old Jacob Steele,
F C A7 G7
He's gettin' well on, but he's still pretty sound;
C F G7 C
While Uncle Bob Hockins wears six pairs of stockin's
C G7 C
Whenever he's out on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
Holy Smoke! What a scuffle! All hands are excited,
F C A7 G7
It's a wonder to me that there's nobody drowned;
C F G7 C
There's a bustle, confusion, the wonderful hustle,
C G7 C
They're all jiggin' squid on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
Says Barney, "The squids are on top of the water,
F C A7 G7
I just felt me jiggers jig five fat homs down
C F G7 C
But a squid in the boat squirted right down his throat,
C G7 C
Now he's swearin'like mad on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
There's poor Uncle Louie, his whiskers are spattered
F C A7 G7
With spots of the squid juice that's flyin' around;
C F G7 C
One poor little guy got it right in the eye,
C G7 C
But they don't give a darn on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
C
Now, if you feel inclined to go squiddin',
F C A7 G7
Leave your white shirt and your collar in the town;
C F G7 C
And if you get cranky without your silk hanky,
C G7 C
You'd better steer clear of the Squid Jiggin' Ground.
