Carbon Leaf - Big Strong Man lyrics

Intro: Have you heard? Have you heard? Have you heard? Have you heard? Haaaaaaaavvvvveeeeeee 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 the heavyweights you got (Cause you got!) You got a lad that can beat the whole lot (Whole lot!) He use to play all the bells in the belfry, Now he's going to fight Jack Dempsey. Chorus: Thats my brother Sylvest (What's he got?) He's got a row of fourty medals on his chest (Big chest!) He k**ed fifty capmen in the West, He knows no rest, kind of the man, hellfire Don't push, don't shove, plenty of room for you and me He's got an arm like a leg, And a fist that would sink a battle ship (Big ship!) Takes all the Army and the Navy To put the wind up Sylvest He thought he'd take a trip to Italy He thought that he'd go by sea, He dived off the harbor at New York And he swam like a man from cork He saw the Lusitania in distress (What did he do?) Put the big ship Lusitania on his chest (Big chest!) He drank all the water in the sea And he walked all the way to Italy. Repeat Chorus He thought he'd take a trip to old Japan. They brought out the whole bra** band. He played every instrument they got what a lad he played the whole lot. The old church bell will ring (will ring) The old Church choir did sing. (will sing) They all turned out to wish him best My big brother, Sylvest. Repeat Chorus Yeah, thats my brother Sylvest He's got a row of fourty medals on his chest (Big chest!) He k**ed fifty capmen in the West, He knows no rest, kind of the man, hellfire Don't push, don't shove, plenty of room for you and me
