[Intro 1]
[G][Em][G][Em]
[G]
She [C]kinda breezed

[Verse 1]
into town from [G]New Orleans
And said, [Em]"Boys,
I'm Big John's Cajun [G]Queen
Now, I didn't come here to argue
or waste anybody's time
I just come to get [Em]my man fr[G]om
your [Fm]dirty old [F]mine[B]
'Cause he moves [G]me
[Em]

[Verse 2]
[B]Now where [Em]you give up'[Eb]s
where old [C]Queenie's gon[Em]na start
[C]'Cause I got[G] a powerful love in my heart
So [C]just show me the hole [G]way
down in the [F#]ground
And [Em]tell the whole wide [G]world
Big John's been [Fm]found[B]
And [G]he's livin'"
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[G]
So [C]down [Em]in the [C]mine [F#]without
[G]a sign [Em]of a light[C][G]
Old Queenie went a- lookin'
for John that [B]night
[G]She fou[Em]nd him the[B]re
[F#]at the bottom of the pit
[B]And [Bb]placed a [F]red- [Fm]hot [C]kiss on
his [F#]cold blue [B]lips
He started [F#]breath[G]in'[Em][B]
[Em](aah[Fm])[C][Fm][Ab]

[Verse 4]
She [Fm]waited a minute and then
she kissed him again
And old John got the [C]power
of a hundred men
[Ab]Up h[Fm]e come a- clawin' and[Ab]
a- dig[Fm]gin' [F#]like a mole
An[Fm]d said, "come on Queenie,
we're gonna [C]leave this [G]hole"[C]
They started walkin'
[Fm]

[Verse 5]
[Ab]
Now a roar from the crowd
greeted this fine pair
As they [Fm]both walked out in that
[Ab]cool [G]night [Fm]air
And up for silence went Big [Ab]John's hand
And [Fm]the Queen said,
"I told you I'd get [Em]my m[C]an
'Cause he [Ab]moves me"
[Fm]

[Verse 6]
[Ab]
You [Fm]can find them [Ab]today,
they're down in New [Fm]Or l[C]eans
[Fm]Big Bad John and his Cajun
[C]Queen[Fm]
They're a little bit wrinkled
from the [Ab]strain of time
But their [Fm]love's just as strong
as that night in [Ab]the mine[C]
A hundred- and- ten [Fm]grandchildren

[Verse 7]
[Fm]
Now the moral of this story
[F#]has a real clear omen
Don't you ever underestimate the power

[Outro 1]
of a woman
[Fm][Ab][Fm][Ab][Fm]
[Ab][Fm]
