Big Bad John (大坏蛋约翰) - The Charlie Daniels Band
Written by：Jimmy Ray Dean

Every mornin' 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 ya didn't give no lip to big john

Nobody seemed to know where john called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone

He didn't say much kinda quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all you just said hi to big john

Somebody said he came from new Orleans
Where he got in a fight over a Cajun queen
And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Louisianan fellow to the promised land big john

Big john big john big bad john

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine
When a timber cracked and men started cryin'
Miners were prayin' and hearts beat fast
And everybody thought that they'd
Breathed their last'cept john

Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell
Walked a giant of a man that the miners knew well
Grabbed a saggin' timber gave out with a groan
And like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone big john

Big john big john big bad john

And with all of his strength he gave a mighty shove
Then a miner yelled out there's a light up above
And twenty men scrambled from a would be grave
Now there's only one left down there to save big john

With jacks and timbers they started back down
Then came that rumble way down in the ground
And then smoke and gas belched out of that mine

Everybody knew it was the end of the line for big john

Big john big john big bad 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 one hell of a man big john

Big john big john big john big john big bad john

Big bad john
