《Big Bad John》歌词

[00:00:00] Big Bad John - Jimmy Dean/Rose Madox

[00:00:00] Big John

[00:00:03] Big John

[00:00:06] Ev'ry mornin' at the mine

[00:00:07] You could see him arrive

[00:00:09] He stood six foot six

[00:00:10] And weighed two forty five

[00:00:11] Kinda broad at the shoulder

[00:00:13] And narrow at the hip

[00:00:14] And everybody knew

[00:00:15] Ya didn't give no lip to Big John

[00:00:19] Big John Big John

[00:00:25] Big Bad John

[00:00:27] Big John

[00:00:30] Nobody seemed to know

[00:00:32] Where John called home

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

[00:00:36] He didn't say much

[00:00:38] He kinda quiet and shy

[00:00:39] And if you spoke at all

[00:00:41] He 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 Louisiana fellow

[00:00:54] To the Promised Land Big John

[00:00:58] Big John Big John

[00:01:03] Big Bad John

[00:01:06] Big John

[00:01:09] Then came the day at the bottom of the mine

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

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

[00:01:18] And everybody thought

[00:01:19] That they'd breathed their last acept John

[00:01:23] Through the dust and the smoke

[00:01:24] Of this man made hell

[00:01:26] Walked a giant of a man

[00:01:27] That the miners knew well

[00:01:28] Grabbed a saggin' timber

[00:01:29] Gave out with a groan

[00:01:30] And like a giant Oak tree

[00:01:33] He just stood there alone Big John

[00:01:36] Big John Big John

[00:01:42] Big Bad John

[00:01:44] Big John

[00:01:48] And with all of his strength

[00:01:49] He gave a mighty shove

[00:01:50] Then a miner yelled out

[00:01:52] "There's a light up above"

[00:01:53] And twenty men scrambled

[00:01:55] From a would-be grave

[00:01:56] Now there's only one left down

[00:01:58] There to save Big John

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

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

[00:02:08] And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine

[00:02:10] Everybody knew it was

[00:02:11] The end of the line for Big John

[00:02:15] Big John Big John

[00:02:21] Big Bad John

[00:02:23] Big John

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

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

[00:02:33] These few words are written on that stand

[00:02:36] At the bottom of this mine

[00:02:39] Lies a big big man Big John

[00:02:45] Big John Big John

[00:02:50] Big Bad John

[00:02:53] Big John

[00:02:56] Big John

[00:02:58] Big Bad John
