  • Every time i hear this song it brings a tear to my eye cause it reminds me of both my late grandmothers who helped raise me.  This song was used on both of their video memorials we made for their separate funerals. Not a dry eye in the house cause this makes everyone think of that special woman who meant so much and got so little back.

  • Thanks for posting. RIP JD

  • Thanks for bringing tears to my eyes!!!

  • Thank you Jimmy for helping me thank my Mama. She preceeded you about 13 years ago, but if you see her she's big fan of yours just tell her her son loves her, misses her and give her a great big hug and tell he I said thank you and I hope she approves of the kind of Daddy I am to my young'uns, I love you Mom. God Bless You †

  • God bless Jimmy Dean. He will be missed!

  • My mother lost her brother today and as her once large family of siblings narrow down this song came to mind as I thought of Jimmy Dean and the loss country music experienced with his passing. Funny thing though about a month ago I found an autographed photo of Jimmy Dean in some of mothers things after we moved her in with us. So take pleasure in this song is for a mother. Thank you Jimmy Dean!

  • Jimmy, debt paid in full for all the recitations and songs you gave to us. Hope they've got your brand of sausage in Heaven. God bless RIP.

  • R.I.P. Jimmy .............remember "Big Bad John" from my parents record collection in the 60's.

  • I purchased and played this song to my Mother once - on Mothers Day . . .

    Listening to it - we both hugged each other, and cried our eyes out - in simple sweet joy and love - for each other.

    Almost every time - I would make the trip to see her - she would dig out that old 45, and we would again - hug and bawl like babies. She was such a wonderful person.

    I sure miss you Mom.

  • I like Big Bad John song by Jimmy Dean. I just found out he passed away today he was 81 yrs old.

  • Love all of Jimmy Dean's music. It such a shame that we have lost another country legend. R.I.P. Jimmy there are still so many that love your music and always will.

  • this song hits home!!! thank's..

  • It's amazing how he can make you think he's talking each of our Moms. I guess it's the sign of a great song. Almost everything he says is right on the money. My Mom passed over 10 years ago, but I was lucky enough to discover this song and share it with her before she passed. I can't listen to it without a tear or two in my eye. Thank you for posting and thank you Jimmy Dean for giving to us in the first place.

  • @bchnut2 me too'but I just played it for my mother, I hope I never loose her.. but we don't last for ever sorry to say,I only hope that day never comes..so sorry for the loss of your mom,God blees her soul,and God bless you! and may God be with all of us...

  • there is no better way to say i love you mom then with this song

  • For my Momma on Mothers Day. She was a widow at age 32 and never re-married. She sacrificed her life for her 4 kids. She did without so we could have something. She's kinda hard to deal with sometimes but she's my Momma and I Love her. Momma, Happy Mothers Day...

  • Thank you for sharing this precious song with us! I love you Mom!

  • My mom passed away three years ago today.

  • this is the best song ever it makes me think of my husband's mom she is an angle now with God i love her so very much!!!!!!!!!!!! she was always like a mom 2 me.....

  • Today I lost my mother, and all I can do is sit here and listen to this over and over. I lived long distance and never saw my mother as much as she hoped. Now I'm full of regret! Never let the chance past to say I love you! When its to late, it hurts

  • I am very sorry for your loss. Remember, blessed is he who mourns for he SHALL be comforted! I hope that helps.

  • My mom went to heaven on April 02, 2009 and my big brother sent this to me to help me through. It's as if this song was written just for our mom. IOU mommy for everything that I am.
