"Big Willie"
16 bar, Capo 1st fret.

Em...............Em...............B7................B7
One Eye Willy, was the king of the sea
He was the biggest whale you ever did see
Em...............Em...............B7................B7
He was mad, he was bad, and mighty glad
He was the biggest whale on the seven seas
Em...............Em...............B7................B7
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Em...............Em...............B7................B7
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Over on deck stood Captain Shannon
With golden stolen pistols, in each hand
He was mad, he was bad, he was mighty glad
That he was the biggest baddest pirate on the seven seas
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Down in the kitchen was butcher Leigh
He was cooking up the Captain’s favourite tea
Potatoes and capers with some extra cheese,
And the hottest Jalapenos to make him scream
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Now on the day big Willy, lost his load
He sprayed the Captain right up in the noise
So the Captain chased poor old Willy down
And harpoon him right in the eye
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
Hey ho, hey big Willie
He was the biggest sperm whale with the biggest blow hole
