The Great Bull Dolphin Roundup

(Eric Stone, Jim Kockelman, Jimmy Buffett)

 

D                                    G                           D

We pulled into the fuel dock onboard the Ramblin Rose

D                                    G                           D

Under captain Jim who goes by slim, the best fishing guide I know

G                                               D       

Then he said listen partners it's time we had some fun

             G                    D                     A                          D

He said boys this is a roundup, so lets get some bait and rum

 

 

 

CHORUS:

              G                 A                            D

An now I wish could always stay right here

G                    A                     E                A

On board the Ramblin Rose sipping on a beer

              G                 A                            D

Yes I wish I could always stay right here

               G                            D                A                          D

But that Great Bull Dolphin Roundup just happens once a year

 

 

D                                    G                           D

We got 15 Mullet and a pack of Ballyhoo

D                                    G                           D

A basket full of fresh Key Limes and some Mount Gay Rum too

G                                               D       

About to start the biggest fishing trip of our carreer

             G                    D                     A                          D

Yeah were fishermen we'll strike again but first lets have a beer

 

 

 

REPEAT CHORUS

 

 

D                                    G                           D

We were celebrating down at Bonita Bills bout' as drunk as we could be

D                                    G                           D

When in walked the old game warden and he was eyeing our trophy

G                                               D       

He said, "I found the small ones hidden neath your starboard rail"

             G                    D                     A                          D

He said, "The big one got the trophy but the small ones get you jail

 

 

REPEAT CHORUS

               G                            D                A                          D

Yeah, The Great Bull Dolphin Roundup just happens once a year
