I have “Big John” on a 45 and the flipside has “I Won’t Go Huntin’ With You Jake, But I’ll Go Chasin’ Wimmin” and I think I have that spelled from memory correctly.Also, “Hot Rod Lincoln” is pretty close to being a rap song.
Everyone who remembers Jimmy Dean knows he also had a role in a James Bond flick playing Willard Whyte, a character similar to Howard Hughes. The film was Diamonds Are Forever and also starred Jill St. John and of course, Sean Connery…

I remember when the song came out they had to do a quick remake and change the final line from “lies one hell of a man” to “lies a big, big man.”…

comicsssfan: As opposed to how they messed up “Rambling Wreck”’’s repeated “heckofa” sound of clanking machinery, just to be “naughty”.

Another song was released and it was almost scaraligous. In that version was Big John was lying in state when a woman lissed and he rose from death.
