His Name Was Big Jim Holton

Born in Lesmahagow in 1951, He grew tall and he grew handsome, In that wee old Scottish town, He left Bonny Scotland, For West Brom and Shrewsbury Town, And the day that he'll remember, Is when Tommy Docherty came to town. For he bought him for eighty thousand, And brought him home to us, And now he's the finest, Of Scottish centre-half's, He stands six-foot-two, His eyes are shining blue, There isn't a single forward, He doesn't put the fright into, For he's more than just a player, He plays with all his heart, His name was Big Jim Holton, He was United's centre-half.
