Big Bad John
作詞:Jimmy Dean
(Big John, Big John)
Every morning at the mine you could see him arrive He stood six-foot-six and weighed two-forty-five Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)
Nobody seemed to know where John called home He just drifted into town and stayed all alone He didn't say much, he kinda quiet and shy And if you spoke at all, you just said 'Hi' to Big John

(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John (Big John)
Now they never reopened that worthless pit They just placed a marble stand in front of it These few words are written on that stand At the bottom of this mine lies a big, big man, Big John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John
(Big John, Big John) Big Bad John
