[Verse 1]
      G
Now I saw you talking to a cute little slip of a sailor

And it looked at first like the whole thing would end as a failure
         C                        G                 B                       Em
He had a thing about a quarter to four, and he just couldn't handle any more
             G                    D                    G     G7/B
He's got his own big dipper so he won't be needing your, big dipper
             C                     D                G    D
He's got his own big dipper and he won't be needing yours


[Verse 2]
       G
So you filled him up with all kinds of stuff to relax him

And you took him down to the fairground after some action
        C                        G                B                              Em
And by around about a quarter to six, you found a different way to get your kicks
          G                         D                G           G7/B
Up on the real big dipper where you tried an few new tricks, big dipper
        C                        D               G    D
Up on a great big dipper did you learn a few new licks

[Bridge]
          C                    G             B                              Em
He hadn't been too keen at the start, now he seems to have a change of heart
             G                    D               G         G7/B
He's got his own big dipper, only now he's not so sure, big dipper
             C                           D               G
He's got his own big dipper, but there's always room for more


[Chorus]
G
 Everybody's got a song to sing
                                       C           G
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
G
 Everybody's got a song to sing
                                       C           G
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper


[Bridge]
        C                        G            B                      Em
And at around about a quarter to ten, you got up and did it all again
             G                         D                    G        G7/B
He's got his own big dipper and now he knows just what it's for, big dipper
             C                        D              G
He's got his own big dipper, but he's got his eye on yours


[Chorus]
G
 Everybody's got a song to sing
                                       C           G
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
G
 Everybody's got a song to sing
                                       C           G
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper
G
 Everybody's got a song to sing
                                       C           G
Everybody's got to do their thing, big dipper, big dipper

[Outro]
G                     D             G          C
Another ride, another tune, another crazy afternoon
        G          D                  G
Another reason for squeezing your big dipper
