Teaching Me Worm How To Swim………………Bill Newton
Dm
I was sat by the river with me rod and line
C Dm
Nice and comfortable feeling fine
C Dm
When this bailiff feller said , what are you doin
C Dm
If you don't own up I'll have to run you in
C Dm Am Dm
I said I'm teaching me worm, how to swim, Teaching me worm how to swim
F C Am Dm
He's looking fit, he's looking trim He's trained for hours down in the gym
C Dm Am Dm
The rod and line's just to steady him, I'm teaching me worm how to swim
Dm
He said the sign up there says the fishing's private
C Dm
And the only conclusion that I can arrive at
C Dm
Is that far from animal aquatic coaching
C Dm
What your doin is bloody poaching
Chorus
Then he said what are all these worms in a tin
Your surely not going to throw them all in
I said their skills are highly prized
Coz they do swimming what's synchronised
Chorus
Just then me worm was grabbed by a trout
And in trying to rescue I pulled the fish out
Then I shouted what are you going to do,
Your fish eat me worm, now I'm going to sue
Chorus
Dm
Now I know your Honour you judge on merit
C Dm
Just like last week with me cave rescue ferret
C Dm
My interest is in animal coaching
C Dm
You surely can't think I was poaching
