Darby O'Gill - The Big, Strong Man lyrics

Have you heard about the big, strong man? (What man?) He lives in a caravan (Caravan?) Have you heard about the Jeffries-Johnson fight Oh Lord, what a hell of a fight You can take all the heavyweights you got (What you got?) We've got a man who can beat the whole lot (Whole lot?) He used to work here as a doorman Now he's goin' to fight George Foreman That's me brother, Sylvest' (What's he got?) He's got a row of forty medals on his chest (Big Chest!) He k**ed fifty vermin in the west He knows no rest Hell of a man (Hell's fire!) Don't push (Just shove) Plenty room for you and me He's got an arm like a leg (Ladies' leg) And a punch that could sink a battleship (Bullsh**!) 1: It takes all the army and the navy to put the wind up Sylvest' 2: It takes all the army and the navy to knock the block off Sylvest' 3: It takes all the army and the navy to take the bra off Mae West He thought that he'd go to Italy (Italy?) And he thought that he'd go by sea (I see) So he jumped off the harbor in New York And he swam like a man o' Cork He saw the Lusitania in distress (What'd he do?) He put the Lusitania on his chest (Big Chest!) Then he drank all the water in the sea And he walked all the way to Italy He thought that he'd go to old Japan (Old Japan) So they brought out the whole bra** band (Bra** band) He played every instrument they got Like a lad he beat the whole lot The old church choir did sing (Sing song) And the old church bells did ring (Ding dong) And they all turned out to say farewell To my big brother, Sylvest'
