Biografia:
Jimmy Dean (August 10, 1928 Olton, Texas - June 13, 2010 Varina, Virginia) was an American singer, actor, and businessman who became a professional entertainer following a stint in the U.S. Air Force in the late 1940s.

He became the host of the popular Washington D.C. TV program Town and Country Time and, with his Texas Wildcats, became regional favorites.

(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.

(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.

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.

Now they never re-opened that worthless pit
