Lyrics
Chorus
He’s a big, big man from the South
Just a great big man from the South
He’s got a big cigar in his mouth
So, I know that he comes from the South
Chorus
‘Twas that big big man from the South
YEs, that great big man from the South
He’s got a big cigar in his mouth
So, I know that he comes from the South
Patter
Does he come from Alabam’?
No, Oh! No, Oh!
Mississip’ or Lou’sian’
No, Oh! No, Oh!
Say, would you like to know
The State that claims this boy
He comes from ‘way down
South Chicago, Illinoy
Chorus
Oh! I met that man from the South
Yes, I met that man from the South
He had a big cigar in his mouth
So, I knew that he came from the South
