I awoke one morning
from a horrible dream
A
B
In a Louisiana town where
they call me Queen
A
B
Saw a man catch a train
at the rise of sun
With a tearful scream, I called his name
A

Big John

Angry mobs were gathering
in Bourbon Street
A
B
And as I ran across,
they pointed at me
A
B
There's the Cajun queen,
she started the fight
A
B
A
B
That caused Big John to kill last night
A
B
I kept on running straight to the east
A
B
As I followed the track
of the big iron beast
A

Through the sun or rain, the days and nights
B
I never thought once about givin'
A

up the fight for my John

The long trail led to a mining town
A
B
And it didn't take long for
the talk to get around
A
B
That a Cajun girl from New Orleans
A
B
Was asking questions in a room
A
B
A
B
in the street for Big John
A
B
Now nobody seemed
to want to be the one
A
B
To answer my questions about Big John
A
B
I couldn't tell if their
feelings were of pity or hate
A
B
Only thing I could do was just
A
B
watch and wait for Big John

Oh John
There was an old miner
who was friendly and kind
As he talked to me,
I tried to read his mind
A
B
He said, most of these kids you
B
Wouldn't have no daddy,
A
B
hadn't been for John
A
B
He's down in that mine,
but he's not alone
A
B
Under thousands of tons
of dirt and stone
A
B
Twenty men owe their lives
to this mighty man
A
B
And I'm glad to meet the girl
A
B
that once held the hand of Big John
Big John, these words you may not hear
A
B
But somehow I feel you know I'm near
This town's our home,
we'll run no more
Cause there's a welcome mat
at nearly every door for Big John

Mmm, my John you
