Big man in town
Each day as I grow older
The nights are getting colder
Some day 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
Chorus:
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
Big man in town
They think that I`m a rover
But my rovin` days are over
Some day your folks will welcome me
I went away a small man
But I`ll come home a tall man
Then what a pretty bride you`ll be
[repeat chorus]
Coda:
(Big man in town)
I`m gonna make it, just wait and see
Oh, I`m gonna make it, just wait and see
Girl I`m gonna make it, just wait and see
