[Verse 1]
A                           D        A
It’s like some smoke from a thousand cigarettes
A                                 D       A
And there’s little bad men making big bad bets
A                      C#            F#                  D
We’re going fighting tonight, to see Jimmy our pride and joy
A               E                  A
That wonderful, mouthful, fighting boy


[Chorus]
A7      D7                 A
Saying, who’ll take Jimmy, at six to four
A        E7                        A
Here’s a-another ten cents that he won’t hit the floor
A      D7                         A
He’s a hero, a champion, he’s the daddy of them all
E7                             D          A
But all the big champions must have a big fall


[Verse 2]
A             D                           A
Now Jimmy’s a local and he comes from the mines
A                  D                 A
And now he fancies the women and the wine
A                      C#         F#        D
So with soul, and with tears, our hero will grumble
A                          E7       A
And the dreams of all will start to crumble


[Chorus]
A7      D7                 A
Saying, who’ll take Jimmy, at six to four
A      E7                        A
Here’s another ten cents that he won’t hit the floor
A      D7                         A
He’s a hero, a champion, he’s the daddy of them all
E7                             D          A
But all the big champions must have a big fall


[Organ Solo]


[Chorus]
A
Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie, Now
A7      D7                 A
Saying, who’ll take Jimmy, at six to four
A      E7                        A
Here’s another ten cents that he won’t hit the floor
A      D7                         A
He’s a hero, a champion, he’s the daddy of them all
E7                             D          A
But all the big champions must have a big fall


[Verse 3]
A                    D          A
Into the ring with a jump and a skip
A                                     D            A
And not knowing that soon there’ll be blood on his lip
A                          C#             F#              D
And on his arms and on his thighs, in his nose and in his eyes
A                          E7       A
And tomorrow’s papers will say oh what a surprise


[Chorus]
A7      D7                 A
Tell me, who’ll take Jimmy, at six to four
A      E7                        A
Here’s another ten cents that he won’t hit the floor
A      D7                         A
He’s a hero, a champion, he’s the daddy of them all
E7                             D          A
But all the big champions must have a big fall
