big man in a big house - leroy van dyke lyrics

[intro]
he’s a big man
in a big house

[verse 1]
well, when he was a kid he dreamed about a big house on a hill
far, far away from shanty town and poverty
he was only sixteen, a kid full of dreams when he ran away
he left his mom a note saying “you’ll be proud of me someday.”

[chorus 1]
“when i’m a big man in a big house
with acres and acres of ground
i’ll be a big man in a big house
with a big high fence all around
a big high fence all around.”

[verse 2]
well he settled down in a great big town and he worked so hard
but the harder he’d work, the more he’d spend it seemed
and all his newfound friends they made fun of him and said “come along
and we’ll show you how you can fulfill all your dreams.”

[chorus 2]
“you’ll be a big man in a big house
with acres and acres of ground
you’ll be a big man in a big house
with a big high fence all around
a big high fence all around
[verse 3]
he was just twenty*one when a loaded gun was his downfall
for he joined the gang, he did something he shouldn’t do
then one rainy night, the police came by and they took him in
and the judge said “son, there’s a place for kids like you.”

[chorus 3]
now he’s a big man in a big house
with acres and acres of ground
yes he’s a big man in a big house
with a big high fence all around
a big high fence all around

[outro]
with acres and acres of ground
a big high fence all around
