Lyrics

Have you heard about the Big Strong Man
He Lives in a Caravan
Have you heard about the Michael Gibbons Fight
O Lord what a Helluva Fight
You can take all the Heavy Weights Ya Got
Got a Lad who can Lick the Whole Lot
Used to Ring Bells in the Belfry
Now he's gonna Fight Jack Dempsey
He was my brother Sylvest,
A row of 40 meddles on his chest
Killed 50 bad men in the west
He knows no rest
Think of a Man, Hells Fire,
Don't Push, Don't Shove,
Plenty room for you and me
Got an Arm, Like a Leg
And a Punch that would Sink a Battleship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To keep the wind up, Sylvest
Well he thought he'd go to Italy
And he thought that he'd go by Sea
Jumped off the harbor in New York
And he swam like a man made of cork
Saw the Lusitania in distress
So he put the Lusitania on his chest
Drank all the water in the sea
And he walked all the way to Italy
He was my brother Sylvest,
A row of 40 meddles on his chest
Killed 50 bad men in the west
He knows no rest
Think of a Man, Hells Fire,
Don't Push, Don't Shove,
Plenty room for you and me
Got an Arm, Like a Leg
And a Punch that would Sink a Battleship
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To keep the wind up, Sylvest
