(Big John)
(Mmmmmm)
G F
Every moning at the mine you could see him arrive
G F
He stood six foot six and weighed 245
G F
Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip
G F G
And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John.
Em C D G
(Big John, Big Jo----ohn), Big Bad John.
(Mmmmm)

(MMm)
G F
Nobody seemed to know where John called home
G F
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone
G F
Didn't say much a-kinda quiet and shy
G F
And if you spoke at all you just said high to Big John
G F
(Mmmmm) (Mmmm)
G F
Somebody said he came down from New Orleans
G F
Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen
G F
And a crashin blow from a huge right hand
G F
Sent a Louisiana fellow to the Promised Land Big John
(Chorus)
Em C D G
(Big John, Big Jo----ohn), Big Bad John.
(Mmmmm)

Then came one day at the bottom of the mine
G F
When a timber cracked and the men started crying
G F
Miners were paraying and their hearts beat fast
G F
And everybody thought they'd breathed their last 'cept
G F
John (Mmmmm)
G F
Through the dust and the smoke of this man made Hell
G F
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
G F
Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a groan
G F G
And like a giant oak tree just stood there alone Big John
Em C D G
(Big John, Big Jo----ohn), Big Bad John.
(Mmmmm)

With all of his strength he gave a mighty shove

G# F#
Now there's only one left down there to save Big

John (Mmmm)
G# F#
With jacks and timbers they started back down
G# F#
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
G# F#
And smoke and gas belched from outta that mine

Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John

Now they never re-opened that worthless pit

They just placed a marble stand in front of it

These few lines are written on that stand

"At the bottom of this mine, lies a Big, Big man.--BIG JOHN".
