G Em Am D D/C D/B D
Chorus
G Don't go down to the quarry in the middle of the night Em ‘cause you’ll never come back, you'll never be right Am We lost Maggie there just last spring D D/C D/B D And Big Ben Johnson, he couldn't do a thing (Ha ha ha ha!)
Verse 1
G Big Ben Johnson made a bet with Mad Man Mike Em That he could cross the quarry in the middle of the night Am A He got there, 'bout halfway across (slurp, slurp...) D D/C D/B D He started sinking down in the red clay moss.
Verse 2
G Nearby standin' on the tracks where the trains used to come Em Was Mad Man Mike, beatin' on his drum Am Laughin' out loud, eyes rollin' in his head D D/C D/B D Standin' on the tracks in Lucifer's stead
Verse 3
G With a long red cape and fire in his eyes Em He lifted up his hands to the midnight skies Am And the thunder start to roll and the lightenin' flashed wild (thunder sounds) D D/C D/B D And Big Ben Johnson start a cryin' like a child.

Down, down, down, downVerse 4
G Then the earth gave a shudder, the quarry start to split Em Screamin' down went Johnson into the fiery pit Am With a laugh that shivered the center of the bone D D/C D/B D Mad Man Mike just standin' there alone
Verse 5
G He's callin' all the people, to take their turn Em And fall into the pit and eternally burn (Ah! Ha, Ha ha ha ha!) Am Down, down, don't go down (Ah! Ha, Ha ha ha ha!) D D/C D/B D Down, down, down, down
Verse 6
G Oh, Lucifer's caught on the railraod track Em He's howlin' at the moon 'cause he can't come back (soft howeling) Am In the evenin' while we're sittin' there in front of the fire D D/C D/B D We laugh at old Lucifer before we retire
Chorus
G Don't go down to the quarry in the middle of the night Em ‘cause you’ll never come back, you'll never be right Am We lost Maggie there just last spring D D/C D/B D And Big Ben Johnson, he couldn't do a thing
