Big Bad John - Jimmy Dean[00:00:00]

Big John[00:00:00]

Big John[00:00:03]

Every morning at the mine you could see him arrive[00:00:06]

He stood six foot six and weighed two forty-five[00:00:08]

Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip[00:00:11]

Everybody knew you didn't give no lip to big John[00:00:14]

Big John[00:00:19]

Big John[00:00:22]

Big bad John[00:00:25]

Big John[00:00:27]

Nobody seemed to know where John called home[00:00:31]

He just drifted into town and stayed all alone[00:00:33]

He didn't say much kinda quiet and shy[00:00:37]

If ya spoke at all ya just said hi to big John[00:00:39]

Somebody said he came from New Orleans[00:00:45]

Where he got in a fight o'er a cajun queen[00:00:47]

And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand[00:00:50]

Sent a Lousianna fella to the promised land big John[00:00:53]

Big John[00:00:58]

Big John[00:01:01]

Big bad John[00:01:04]

Big John[00:01:07]

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine[00:01:10]

When a timber cracked and men started cryin'[00:01:12]

Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast[00:01:15]

And everybody thought they'd breathed their last 'cept John[00:01:18]

Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell[00:01:23]

Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well[00:01:26]

Grabbed the saggin' timber and gave out with a groan[00:01:29]

And like a giant oak tree just stood there alone[00:01:31]

Big John[00:01:34]

Big John[00:01:37]

Big John[00:01:40]

Big bad John[00:01:42]

Big John[00:01:45]

And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove[00:01:49]

Then a miner yelled out there's a light up above[00:01:51]

And twenty men scrambled from a would be grave[00:01:53]

Now there's only one left down there to save[00:01:57]

Big John[00:01:59]

With jacks and timbers they started back down[00:02:02]

Then came that rumble way down in the ground[00:02:05]

As smoke and gas belched outta the mine[00:02:08]

Everybody knew it was the end of the line for big John[00:02:11]

Big John[00:02:15]

Big John[00:02:18]

Big bad John[00:02:21]

Big John[00:02:24]

Now they never reopened that worthless pit[00:02:27]

They just placed a marble stand in front of it[00:02:29]

These few words are written on that stand[00:02:32]

At the bottom of this mine lies a big big man[00:02:36]

Big John[00:02:42]

Big John[00:02:44]

Big John[00:02:47]

Big bad John[00:02:49]

Big John[00:02:52]
