Have you heard about the big strong man
Who lived in a caravan?
Have you heard about the Johnson Jeffrey fight
Where the black fella fought the white?
He plays all the organs in the belfry,
And he wants to fight Jack Dempsey.
So they'll all come out to see (Well who?)
My Brother Sylvester and me.
Chorus:
He's my brother Sylvest
And what has he got?
He's got a row of forty medals on his chest (Big
chest!)
Killed a thousand Zulus in the West,
He takes no rest,
He's got an arm like a leg,
And a punch that would sink a battle ship. (Big ship!)
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylvest.
2. He thought he'd take a trip to Italy
He thought he'd take a trip by the sea,
He dived off the pier at New York
And he swam like a man made of cork
He saw the big ship Lusitania in distress
(So what did he do?)
He swallowed all the water in the sea (Big swallow!)
Put the big ship Lusitania on his chest (Big chest!)
And carried the bloody lot to Italy
3. He thought he'd take a trip to Arabie
(So what did he do?)
He swam across the old Red Sea
He went to ev'ry harem they had got
And he made a better bloody sheik than all
the lot.
All the dancing girls were dancing
And old Sylvester was prancing
And they all fell--Who for?
Well, who d'you think?
That big black bugger Sylvester.
Chorus:
4. Oh, he thought he'd take a trip to old Japan.
And they brought out the whole brass band.
He played every instrument they got
like a lad he sure beat the whole lot.
Oh the old church bells did ring
(Hells Bells!)
The old Church choir did sing.
(Hells Fire!)
They came out to say farewell
To my big brother, Sylvest
He's my brother Sylvest
And what has he got?
He's got a row of forty medals on his chest (Big
chest!)
Killed a thousand Zulus in the West,
He takes no rest,
He's got an arm like a leg,
And a punch that would sink a battle ship. (Big ship!)
Takes all the Army and the Navy
To put the wind up Sylvest.

OK if you want but that's the pussy politically correct Irish version. If you can find the live version on vinyl by Johnny Silvo without all the stupid tin whistles and fiddles then you have the version I'm talking about. Kevin Bloody Wilson also has a version but nothing beats the Silvo one.
