Our one and only Johnny Cash wrote this song about Big Bad Jon McKain....

Big John
Big John

Every morning at the mine, you could see him arrive.
He stood 6 foot 6, weighed 245.
Kind of broad at the shoulders, narrow at the hip.
And everybody knew you didn't give no lip to Big John.

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Nobody seemed to know where John called home
He just drifted into town and stayed all alone.
He didn't say much, kind of quiet and shy
And if you spoke at all, you'd just said hi to Big John.
Somebody said he came from New Orleans,
Where he got into a fight over a Cajun Queen.
And a crash and a blow from a huge right hand,
sent a Louisiana fella to the promise land.

Big John
Big John
Big bad John
Big John

Then came the day at the bottom of the mine,
when a timber cracked and men started crying.
Minors were praying, and hearts beat fast
and everybody thought they had breathed their last
cept' John.
Through the dust and the smoke of this man made hell,
walked a giant of a man that the minors knew well.
Grabbed a sagging timber and gave out with a groan,
and like a giant oak tree he just stood there alone, Big John

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

And with all of his strength, he gave a mighty shove.
Then a minor yelled out, 'theres a light up above!'.
And 20 men scrambled from a 'would be' grave
now theres only one left down there to save, Big John.
With jacks and timbers, they started back down,
then came that rumble way down in the ground.
And as smoke and gas smelched out of that mine,
everybody knew it was the end of the line, for Big John.

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John

Now they never re-opened that worthless pit,
they just placed a marble stand in front of it.
These few words are written on that stand,
'At the bottom of this mine, lies one Hell of a man, Big John'

Big John
Big John
Big Bad John
Big John.

Put these words into the later version of the chorus that has a slower second line...

If you go round Jon McKai-ai-n
You, might, ne-ver, walk a-gain.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

I bumped into JJ Cale today and he handed me a little slip of paper with this written on it...
 
If you wanna hang out you've got to take him out
McKain
You're gonna go down, down on the ground
McKain
He don't lie, He don't lie, He don't lie
McKain

If you got Hard News, you wanna kick them blues
McKain
When your day is done and you wanna run
McKain
He don't lie, he don't lie, he don't lie
McKain

If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on
McKain
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back
McKain
He don't lie, he don't lie, he don't lie
McKain

As luck would have it, Cheap Trick came into my work the other day and I overheard them singing this...
 
Wherever you go, Ill be with you.
Whatever you want, Ill give it to you.
Whenever you need someone to lay your heart and head upon.
Remember: after the fire, after all the rain,
There will be McKain.
There will be McKain.

Jon McKain, darling Jon McKain 
Thank you for walks down lovers lane.
I can see, hearts carved on a tree, letters inter-twined, for all time, yours and mine, that was fine.
