[Intro] [Verse] Well pull up a log and come gather near I'll have ya grinnin' like a possum if you stay 'round to hear So settle in fellers, keep it down if ya can While I tell ya some stories 'bout Ole Big Dan [Instrumental] Well ya know Big Dan, he was a hell of a man With a beard that was tucked into a Wrangler waist band Just one boot of his took a whole cow to make When driving in fence posts, the whole ranch would shake [Chorus] "Big Dan!" [instrumental] [verse] One time he grabbed a mad bull right by the horns Raked that outlaw through a whole field of thorns Came across a grizzly bear and gave it a pet You know that man never even broke a sweat [Chorus] "Big Dan!" [Instrumental] [verse] When he had a beer, well that forty ounce can Looked just like a thimble in the palm of his hand And what do you know, that son of a gun If he took off his hat, we all burned in the sun [chorus] "Big Dan!" [instrumental] [verse] When a straight wind blew, and our poles were bent Dan stretched out his arms so we could pitch our tents When the flood waters rose, he picked up the trucks One in each hand, like he don't give a fuck [chrous] "BIG DAN!" [Instrumental] [Verse] Once found a cow who couldn't find her crew Put her in his breast pocket, so she had a better view Then one night in winter, with the fire 'bout to die He reached up and relit it with a star in the sky [Chorus] "BIG DAN!!!" [Instrumental] [Verse] He stepped back up on the mountain, into that wide open space Thought, "This little ol' planet ain't a big enough place" Saw a comet fly by and said, "Boys, that's my ride!" Swung a lasso around it, roped it on the first try Tipped his hat to the campfire, gave the moon a big grin And rode that blazing ball to where no man has been Now some lucky folks may see him in their life span But so far no one has laid eyes on [Chorus] "BIG DAN!!!" "Yeehaw!!" "BIG DAN!!!" "Ride on, Dan!" "BIG DAN!!!" "Go big or go home, right! " "BIG DAN!!!" "See ya among the stars, ya big bastard!!!" [Instrumental] "BIG DAN!!!" [Outro]
