Lyrics
Heaven Won't Take Him (v1) Big John's back And he's walkin' taller Him on the street Makes the town seem smaller They run him out When he was seventeen Like his daddy He grew up mean Chorus Now he's a stranger, and he’s packin' danger So you better not leave him at large Heaven won't take him And hell wants to shake him 'Cause the devil's afraid he'll take charge (v2) Big John's here And he's up to no good A shadow stalkin' The whole neighbourhood Knows who he wants And he’s makin’ him sweat There's plenty of time But it ain’t time yet Chorus Now he's a stranger, and he’s packin' danger So you better not leave him at large Heaven won't take him And hell wants to shake him 'Cause the devil's afraid he'll take charge Bridge He wasn't guilty, he just looked too tough And when a town needs a whippin' boy The eyes are enough He mighta been wild but he never hurt that child And after ten years in prison for a crime not his He's back and he’s gonna be doin’ one that is Chorus Now he's a stranger, and he's packin' danger So you better not leave him at large Heaven won't take him And hell wants to shake him 'Cause the devil's afraid he'll take charge Outro He’s mean… You’re gonna be sorry… Here he comes… Watch out… © 2009-2011 Donna Devine (lyrics) & Vic Arnold (music/arr./inst./vocals)
