Bad, Bad Leroy Brown

In the style of Jim Croce
Words and Music by Iixn Cmoc

KEYS C
Time 8200
Well, the Southside
Of Chicago

Is 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

You see he stand
About six foot four
All the downtown
Ladies call him

Treetop Lover
And he's bad, bad
Leroy Brown

The baddest man in
The whole damn town
Badder than
Old King Kong

Meaner than
A junk yard dog
Now Leroy
He a gambler

And he like his
Fancy clothes
And he like to wave
Those diamond rings

Upon everybody's
Nose
He got a custom
Continental

He got a
Eldorado too
He got a 32-gun
In his pocket for fun

He got a razor
In his shoe
Uh-he's bad, bad
Leroy Brown

The baddest man in
The whole damn town
Badder than
Old King Kong

Meaner than
A junk yard dog
Well Friday
'Bout a week ago

Leroy shooting dice
And at the edge of
The bar sat a girl

Name of Doris and
Oh that girl look nice
Well he cast his
Eyes upon her

And the trouble
Soon began
And Leroy Brown
He learned a lesson
'Bout messing
With thewife

Of a jealous man
And he's bad, bad
Leroy Brown

The baddest man in
The whole damn town
Badder than
Old King Kong

Meaner than
A junk yard dog
Well the two men

Took to fighting
And when they pulled

Them from the floor
Leroy looked like
A jigsaw puzzle

With a couple
Of pieces gone
But he's bad, bad
Leroy Brown

The baddest man in
The whole damn town
Badder than
Old King Kong

Meaner than
A junk yard dog
Yeah, he's bad, bad
Leroy Brown

The baddest man in
The whole

Damn town
