Blaggards - Big Strong Man lyrics

Have you heard about the big strong man? He lived in a caravan Have you heard about the Jeffrey Johnson fight? Oh, Lord what a hell of a fight You can take all of the heavyweights you've got We've got a lad that can beat the whole lot He used to ring bells in the belfry Now he's gonna fight Jack Demspey That was my brother Sylvest' (What's he got?) A row of forty medals on his chest (big chest!) He k**ed fifty bad men in the west; he knows no rest Think of a man, hells' fire, don't push, just shove Plenty of room for you and me He's got an arm like a leg (a ladies' leg!) And a punch that would sink a battleship (big ship!) It takes all of the Army and the Navy to put the wind up Sylvest' Now, he thought he'd take a trip to Italy He thought that he'd go by sea He dove off the harbor in New York And swam like a great big shark He saw the Lusitania in distress He put the Lusitania on his chest He drank all of the water in the sea And he walked all the way to Italy That was my brother Sylvest' (What's he got?) A row of forty medals on his chest (big chest!) He k**ed fifty bad men in the west; he knows no rest Think of a man, hells' fire, don't push, just shove Plenty of room for you and me He's got an arm like a leg (a ladies' leg!) And a punch that would sink a battleship (big ship!) It takes all of the Army and the Navy to put the wind up Sylvest' He thought he take a trip to old Japan They turned out a big bra** band You can take all of the instruments you've got We got a lad that can play the whole lot And the old church bells will ring (Hells bells!) The old church choir will sing (Hells fire!) They all turned out to say farewell to my big brother Sylvest'
