Music Video for Dropkick Murphys song "The Big Man" from FOR THE PEOPLE (Expanded Edition) -- now streaming: https://dropkick-murphys.ffm.to/forthepeopleexpandededition
THE BIG MAN has been one of our favorite songs to play live off the new album — and it’s about one of our favorite friends, Mr. Fletcher Dragge from Pennywise.
The punk scene is built on loyalty, community and friendship and it’s definitely good to be a friend of Fletcher ‘cause you don’t wanna be on his bad side. Love you bro 💕 👊

Lyrics:
Well, I knew I liked The Big Man
When he kidnapped Adam Corolla
And I knew I liked The Big Man
when he ripped the chains off Kid Rock
And I knew I liked The Big Man
When he shot me with a BB
In front of 15,000 people
In a Warped Tour parking lot
So raise your Pringles cans up high
To the legend, the lunatic
A giant, defiant there till the end
He’s everybody's favorite west coast friend
So raise your cans up high (raise ‘em high)
Let’s have a toast to our favorite guy
He’ll fight the system till the day he dies
He’s The Big Man from Pennywise
Well, we all know he loves the chaos
But around us, he’s fairly tame
Yeah, The Big Guy’s wicked generous
He brought Evan to a World Series game
Stolen cars and flaming Christmas trees
Off his back, he’d give you his shirt
You see he’s all about the good times
And in most cases nobody gets hurt
So raise your Pringles cans up high
To the legend, the lunatic
A giant, defiant there till the end
He’s everybody's favorite west coast friend
So raise your cans up high (raise ‘em high)
Let’s have a toast to our favorite guy
He’ll fight the system till the day he dies
He’s The Big Man from Pennywise
If you need a hotel room wrecked
Or a bandmate thrown through a drum set
Or a cocky rockstar bullied to humility
Guess what? We got a guy for you
You see, he’s fair, but he don’t fuck around
He’ll set you straight, he won’t let you down
To know him is to love him or fear him
Depends on what the case may be
So raise your cans up high (raise ‘em high)
Let’s have a toast to our favorite guy
He’ll fight the system till the day he dies
He’s The Big Man from Pennywise
He’ll fight the system till the day he dies
He’s The Big Man from Pennywise
