Many have tried to sing this song, Johnny cash for one, but only 1 man made it a huge hit. Jimmy Dean singing Big Bad John will always be special. The words and music were written by Jimmy Dean. In 1961 Big Bad John was #1 for 5 weeks.

RIP.
I believe he may have been the world’s ONLY “singer/sausageman.” (How his death was announced in news email.)

"Then a miner yelled out 'There's a Light up above! And 20 men scrambled from a would be grave.
Now there's only one left down there to save.....Big John...Big Bad John"
My aunt bought that 45 for me when it was new. I still remember all the lyrics.

You haven’t heard me sing it. You would never forget it... although, you would pray or take medications to try to.

Me too. An old school entertainer who never disappointed.
He made a good line of sausage too. And that is not snark.
Quality products are a reflection of quality people and organization.
May he rest with God, and his family be comforted.
