• The day we caught the big fish

They called me `Skipper'

And I sailed on the sea

Home was the rolling waves

And the beer and the company

And we pulled the nets together

And we worked as a team

Until the day we caught the big fish

And were never seen again

And the clock kept ticking

And my supper went cold

On the day we caught the big fish

And my wife was widowed

We'd talk of the old days

That would never come back

When we needed those muscles

Just to haul in the catch

When the ropes were singing

And our skins grew brown

On the day we caught the big fish

It was all hands down

And the boats kept searching

There was no trace found

On the day we caught the big fish

It was all hands down

When I hit the water

I was still laughing at a joke

That was just done telling

When the monster awoke

And I thought of all the legends

As I heard the winches scream

Then I swam with the devil

In the deep blue sea

And the clock kept ticking

And my supper went cold

There were radio messages

That they couldn't decode

So the boats kept searching

But there was no trace found

On the day we caught the big fish

It was all hands down
