Big John

Big John
Big John
Every morning 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
Everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
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
If ya spoke at all, ya just said hi to Big John

Somebody said he came from New Orleans
Where he got in a fight o'er a cajun queen
And a crashin' blow from a huge right hand
Sent a Lousianna fella to the promised land, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big 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 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 the saggin' timber and gave out with a groan
And like a giant oak tree, just stood there alone, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big 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
As smoke and gas belched outta the mine
Everybody knew it was the end of the line for Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Now, they never re-opened 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 a big, BIG man, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

I wish they would hurry up & run out of oil in the middle east. Then they can go back to eating dates & chasing camels & leave the rest of us in peace !!

When you think about it, even under your scenario, it would be quite easy for most of the middle east to get along without oil, unlike what would happen in the industrialized west, so be careful what you wish.

agree 100%

wait until they complete the Mosque near the site of the World Trade Centers. you haven't seen anything yet.

they will sit outside and glare at OUR women for not wearing a veil and god forbid you eat any pork bar-b-que in their presence. next thing, the mayor will ban pork and our American women will be required to wear a veil so as not to offend the muslims.

shall I say it again? WE ARE SCHMUCKS WHO ENJOY BEING PLAYED.

I was just gonna say, Jimmy Dean just passed away, and now this... he hasn't been in the ground 48hrs and hes rolling over!!!!

Dr. Peter Venkman: Or you can accept the fact that this city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.
Mayor: What do you mean, "biblical"?
Dr. Raymond Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath-of-God type stuff. Fire and brimstone coming down from the sky! Rivers and seas boiling!
Dr. Egon Spengler: Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
Winston Zeddmore: The dead rising from the grave!
Dr. Peter Venkman: Human sacrifice. Dogs and cats living together. Mass hysteria!

This is truly appalling - are we out of our minds?! If Christians did this in 'muslim lands' the organizers and the site would be bombed into oblivion... I guess here in America we are just TOO tolerant... anything goes and even something this offensive receives little opposition. THis really makes me mad...

Yes, tolerance is a sin.

at the new Mosque planned for near the former site of the World Trade Centers, the Muslims won't be exhibiting much in the way of "tolerance". try eating some pork Bar-B-Que as your wife waltzes by the mosque not wearing a veil.

Mr. Rogers: "Kids, can you say INTOLERANCE?????"

Kids: "Yes"

Mr. Rogers: "I KNEW YOU COULD"

since they think these actions are 'religious crimes', they might choose to perform some religious retribution against the offender.

this is just it, as the following quote says so eloquently:

"Americans used to roar like lions for liberty; now we bleat like sheep for security."

-Norman Vincent Peale

as a country, we've been neutered. now, time for me to go to sensitivity training classes so that I can learn how to be more 'tolerant' of others......
