歌词
Have you heard about the big strong man?
Well, he lived in a caravan
Have you heard about Jeffy Just White?
Oh, what a hell of a fight!
He could take all the heavy weights you got
That lad here, he'd beat the whole lot
He used to ring the bells in the belfry
Now he's gonna fight Jack Dempsey
That's me brother, Sylveste
What's he got?
Row of 40 medals on his chest, big chest
Killed 50 bad men in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger than man, hell's fire, don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm, leg, a leg
And a punch that would sink a battleship, big ship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylveste
And he thought he'd take a trip to Italy
Thought that he'd go by the sea
He dived in the harbor in New York
And he swum like a man made of cork
Well, he saw Lusitania in distress
What'd he do?
Took the Lusitania on his chest, big chest
Swallowed all the water in the sea
And he walked all cut deadly
That was me brother, Sylveste
What's he got?
Row of 40 medals on his chest, big chest
Killed 50 bad men in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger than man, hell's fire, don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm, leg, a leg
And a punch that would sink a battleship, big ship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylveste
And he thought he'd take a trip to old Japan
Turned out the whole brass band
He played every instrument they got
And like a lad, sure he beat the whole lot
Now, the old church bells were ringin' hell's bells
The old church choir was singin' hell's fire
All turned out to say farewell
To my big brother Sylveste
That was me brother, Sylveste
What's he got?
Row of 40 medals on his chest, big chest
Killed 50 bad men in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger than man, hell's fire, don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm, leg, a leg
And a punch that would sink a battleship, big ship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylveste
That was me brother, Sylveste
What's he got?
Row of 40 medals on his chest, big chest
Killed 50 bad men in the West
He knows no rest
Bigger than man, hell's fire, don't push, just shove
Plenty of room for you and me
He's got an arm, leg, a leg
And a punch that would sink a battleship, big ship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylveste
