The Big One Got Away
Recorded by Hank Thompson
Written by Hank Thompson and Presley Lewis

G A7
Some people have a way of tellin' things that couldn't be true
D7 G
I guess I'm one of those jokers because I've told a few
A7
Like the guy that goes out fishin' you can always hear him say
C E7 D7 G
I gotta few bites but my luck wasn't right and the big one got away

C G
Now I like to go out fishin' for the different kind of fish you see
A7 D7
Collectin' beautiful women that's the kind of sport for me
G A7
But I lost my blue ribbon baby like the fisherman I'm gonna say
C E7
I had her right in my lap but the line must have snapped
D7 G
And the big one got away

A7
I've got a way with women I know the right bait to toss
D7 G
I know where to cast my lure for sure and get my line across
A7
Well I really snagged a rare one I wish you could have seen her play
C E7 D7 G
I came very near to the catch of the year but the big one got away

C G
I knew I hooked a dandy when that beauty took a hold of my line
A7 D7
What a trophy to sit by my fireside just to show the friends of mine
G A7
Well she took my hook line and sinker but I couldn't reel her in to stay
C E7 D7 G
I can catch my limit of everyday beauties but the big one got away
D7 G
But the big one got away
