Cannonball AdderleyJoe Williams (Jazz)Anybody Need a Big Man / Dialogue Lyrics
[WHORE, spoken]
And you was gonna lead us to the Promised Land!?
[JOHN HENRY]
I'll pick your chicken
Or scrub your floor
Cheaply, I'll do 'most any chore
Big man! I said, big man for hire—
Anybody need a big man here?
[DEPUTY, spoken]
He he he he he he he he!
Always need a big man on the chain gang, boy
Mister John-and-Henry hisself! King of the niggers!
Come on, jingle dance and sing the black law blues for us!
