She kind of breathed into town from New Orleans and said, boys, I'm Big John's Cajun Queen.
I didn't come here to argue or waste anybody's time.
I just come to get my man to be a dirty [Eb] old man, because he moves [Abm] me.
Now, where you give up for old Queenie is going to start, because I got a [Gm] powerful love in [E] my heart.
So just show [Eb] me the hole way down in the [Abm] ground until the whole wide world Big [Eb] John's been found.
And he's [Abm] living.
So down in the mine without a sign of a light, [B] old Queenie went looking for John that night.
[Eb] She found him there at the bottom of the [Abm] pit and placed a red hot kiss on his cold blue [Eb] lips.
He started breathing.
[Abm]
[Am] She waited a minute and then she kissed him again and old John got the [C] power of a hundred men.
And up he come a-clawing and a-digging like a mole, said, come on, Queenie, we're going to [E] leave this hole.
They started walking.
[Am] Now a roar from the crowd greeted this fine pair as they both walked out in that cool night air.
And up for silence went Big John's hand and the Queen said, I [E] told you I'd get my [E] man, because he [Am] moves me.
You can [A] find them today there down in New Orleans, Big Bad [C] John and his Cajun Queen.
They're a little bit wrinkled from the [Am] strain of time, but their love's just as [C] strong as that night in the [E] mine.
A hundred and ten grandchildren.
[Am] Now [Bb] the moral of this story has a real clear omen.
Don't you ever underestimate the power of [C] a woman.
