Bad Leroy Brown

Now the south side of Chicago
It's the baddest part of town
And if you go down there,
you better just beware
of a man named Leroy Brown

Now Leroy more than trouble
he stood about six feet four
All the downtown ladies call him: treetop lover
All the studs they call him: Sir

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder that old King Kong
And Meaner that a junkyard dog

Now Leroy he's a gambler
And he likes his fancy clothes
He likes to wave his diamond rings
In front of everybody's nose

He's got a custom Continental
He's got an Eldorado too
He's got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun
He's got a razor in his shoe

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder that old King Kong
And Meaner that a junkyard dog

Now Friday - 'bout a week ago
Leroy shootin' dice
And at the edge of the bar, sat a lady
named Dorris and,
Man, she sure looked nice

When he layed his eyes upon her
The trouble soon began
And Leroy Brown he learned a lesson 'bout messin'
With the wife of a jealous man

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder that old King Kong
And Meaner that a junkyard dog
