Lyrics Big Strong Man

Have you heard about the big strong man
Well he lived in a caravan
Have you heard about the Jeffries-Johnson fight
Oh Lord what a hell of a night
Well you can take all the heavyweights you got
I know a lad that could beat the whole lot
Yeah used to ring the bells in the belfry and now he's gonna fight
Muhammad Ali
It's me brother Sylvest
A row of forty medals on his chest
He killed fifty badmen in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger the man, hell's fire
Don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm like a leg and a punch that could sink a battleship
Ah takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest
Well he thought he'd take a trip to Italy and he thought that he'd go by sea
So he jumped off the harbour in New York and he swam like a man made of cork
Then he saw the Lusitania in distress
He put the Lusitania on his chest
Drank all the water in the sea and he walked all the way to Italy
That was my brother Sylvest
A row of forty medals on his chest
He killed fifty badmen in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger the man, hell's fire
Don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm like a leg and a punch that could sink a battleship
Well it takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest
Well he thought he'd take a trip to old Japan and they turned out the whole brass band
Well he played every instrument they got and like a lad sure he played the whole lot
Now the old church bells are ringin' and the old church choir's singin'
Well they all turned out to say farewell to my big brother Sylvest
That was my brother Sylvest
A row of forty medals on his chest
He killed fifty badmen in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger the man, hell's fire
Don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm like a leg and a punch that could sink a battleship
It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest
That was my brother Sylvest
A row of forty medals on his chest
He killed fifty badmen in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger the man, hell's fire
Don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm like a leg and a punch that could sink a battleship
It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest
Yes it takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest
