Big Bad John - The Charlie Daniels Band[00:00:00]

Written by：Jimmy Ray Dean[00:00:02]

Every mornin' at the mine you could see him arrive[00:00:14]

He stood six foot six and weighed two forty five[00:00:17]

Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip[00:00:20]

And everybody knew ya didn't give no lip to big john[00:00:23]

Nobody seemed to know where john called home[00:00:29]

He just drifted into town and stayed all alone[00:00:32]

He didn't say much kinda quiet and shy[00:00:35]

And if you spoke at all you just said hi to big john[00:00:38]

Somebody said he came from new Orleans[00:00:44]

Where he got in a fight over a Cajun queen[00:00:47]

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

Sent a Louisianan fellow to the promised land big john[00:00:53]

Big john big john big bad john[00:00:58]

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine[00:01:11]

When a timber cracked and men started cryin'[00:01:13]

Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast[00:01:17]

And everybody thought that they'd[00:01:19]

Breathed their last'cept john[00:01:21]

Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell[00:01:26]

Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well[00:01:28]

Grabbed a saggin' timber gave out with a groan[00:01:31]

And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone big john[00:01:34]

Big john big john big bad john[00:01:40]

And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove[00:02:01]

Then a miner yelled out there's a light up above[00:02:04]

And twenty men scrambled from a would be grave[00:02:07]

Now there's only one left down there to save big john[00:02:10]

With jacks and timbers they started back down[00:02:16]

Then came that rumble way down in the ground[00:02:18]

And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine[00:02:22]

Everybody knew it was the end of the line for big john[00:02:25]

Big john big john big bad john[00:02:30]

Now they never reopened that worthless pit[00:02:43]

They just placed a marble stand in front of it[00:02:45]

These few words are written on that stand[00:02:49]

At the bottom of this mine lies one hell of a man big john[00:02:54]

Big john big john big john big john big bad john[00:03:01]

Big bad john[00:03:26]
