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

[00:00:02] Written by：Jimmy Ray Dean

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

[00:03:26] Big bad john
