Don McLean - Great Big Man lyrics

Rust on your fingers
You got trouble at your feet
Keep the home fires burning
But look out for the heat
'cause there's a man at the window
Who knows just what you think
And there's a water boy behind you
Who won't give you a drink
Well it's a hard, hard time
No easy road in sight
It takes a great big man to
Win a great big fight
When it comes to dying
No matter what you tell
They'll let you into a heaven 'cause
You lived your life in hell
Well they've got no way to reward you
But to let those breezes blow
And you've got nothing left to do
But to let your anger show
'Cause it's a hard, hard time


No easy road in sight
It takes a great big man to
Win a great big fight
Think about your baby, think about your wife
Think about your banker who's trying
To take your life
Think about this planet that's
Rolling through the night
Oh can you turn your back on
Such a great big fight?
You got the muscle, big man
You got the power
But you're getting weaker with
Each passing hour
Just like a flame in the rain
Like a light in the night
Well if it's you that must stay
Well then it's you that must fight!
'Cause it's a hard, hard time
Your future's not bright
It takes a great big man to win a great big
Great big man to win a great big fight
