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 Jaw----won, Big Bad John.
Nobody seemed to know where John called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone
Didn't say much a-kinda quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all you just said high to Big John
Somebody said he came down from New Orleans
Where he got in a fight over a Cajun Queen
And a crashing blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Louisiana fellow to the Promised Land Big John
(Chorus)
Ab F#
Then came one day at the bottom of the mine
Ab F#
When a timber cracked and the men started crying
Ab F#
Miners were paraying and their hearts beat fast
Ab F# Ab
And everybody thought they'd breathed their last 'cept John
Ab F#
Through the dust and the smoke of this man made Hell
Ab F#
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
Ab F#
Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a groan
Ab F# Ab
And like a giant oak tree just stood there alone Big John
Fm Db Eb Ab
Big John, Big Jaw----won, Big Bad John
A G
With all of his strength he gave a mighty shove
A G
Then a miner yelled out "There's a light up above
A G
And 20 men scrambled from w would be grave
A G A
Now there's only one left down there to save Big John
A G
With jacks and timbers they started back down
A G
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
A G
And smoke and gas belched from outta that mine
A G A
Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John
F#m D E A
Big John, Big Jaw----won, Big Bad John.
Return to G
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 one Helluva man.--BIG JOHN".
(Chorus)
