Oh this is the place the fishermen gather
Oil-skins and boots and the Cape hands batten
All sizes of figures with squid and jiggers,
They congregate here on the Squid Ground.

are workin' their jiggers, while others are yarnin',
There's standin' up and there's more lyin' down;
While all of fun, jokes and drinks are begun,
As they wait for the on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.

There's men of all and boys in the bargain,
There's old Billy Cave and there's young Brown;
Rip, Red and Gory out here in the dory,
A runnin' down squires on the Squid Ground.

men from the harbor, there's men from the tickle,
And all kinds of motor-boats, green, gray and
Right yonder is Bobby and him is Nobby,
He's chawin' hard tack on the Squid Ground.

God bless my soul, list to, there's John Champy,
He's the best hand at squid jiggin' here, I'll be
Hello, what's the Why he's jiggin' one now,
The first squid on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.

The man the whiskers is old Jacob Steele,
He's well on, but he's still pretty sound;
Uncle Bob Hockins wears six pairs of stockin's
Whenever he's out on the Squid Ground.

Holy Smoke! What a scuffle! All are excited,
a wonder to me that there's nobody drowned;
There's a bustle, confusion, the hustle,
They're all squid on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.

Says Barney, "The are on top of the water,
I just felt me jiggers jig five down
But a in the boat squirted right down his throat,
Now swearin'like mad on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.

There's Uncle Louie, his whiskers are spattered
With of the squid juice that's flyin' around;
One poor little guy got it in the eye,
But they give a darn on the Squid Jiggin' Ground.

Now, if you feel inclined to go squiddin',
Leave white clothes behind in the town;
And if you get cranky without your hanky,
You'd better steer clear of the Jiggin' Ground.
