Ooo big man in town
Each day as I grow older
the nights are gettin' colder
Someday the sun
will shine on me
Money I don't have any
I'm down to my last penny
But darlin' don't cry over me
I'll be a big man in town
Honest honey
I'll be a big man in town
Promise darlin'
I'll be a big man in town
Just you wait and see
You'll be proud of me
They think that I'm a rover
But my rovin' days are over
Someday your folks
will welcome me
I'll be a big man in town
Honest honey
I'll be a big man in town
Promise darlin'
I'll be a big man in town
Just you wait and see
You'll be proud of me
I'm gonna make it
Just wait and see
Oh I'm gonna make it
Just wait and see
Ah ah ah ah ah ah
