Copper John

album: The Spaces in Between (2010), track 6 of 12
author: Chuck Pyle
publisher: Bee 'n' Flower Music BMI

The sun is bright the lines are tight
The beauties are on the rise
I put on a Copper John
And cast them a surprise

Nary a fish to meet the eye
Never you mind how deep they lie
A golden bead a copper coil
Bound to make the water boil
 CHORUS
   Copper John
   Copper John
   He's the one
   I call upon
   Copper John
   Copper John
   To get a big fish on
   I love my Copper John
The water's clear they know I'm here
Still they can't resist
My Copper John's a leprechaun
of water and of mist

The one of which the fish are fond
Will always be a Copper John
Lake or river creek or pond
Always use a Copper John
 CHORUS

Copper John
Copper John
He's the one
I call upon
Copper John
Copper John
To get a big fish on

Copper John
Copper John
Little Copper Leprechaun
Copper John,
Copper John
Supernatural phenomenon
I love my Copper John
I love my Copper John
I love my Copper John
