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
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 Explain Request ×
