Bad Bad Leroy Brown Songtext / Lyric

Now the south side 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 he's trouble
And he stands about six feet four
All the downtown ladies call him: "treetop lover"
The studs they call him: "Sir"

(REFR-1)
He's bad, bad Leroy Brown
baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder that old King Kong
Meaner that a junkyard dog

(VERS-2)
Now Leroy he's a gambler
And he likes his fancy clothes
He likes to wave his diamond rings
Under everybody's nose

He's got a custom Continental
He's got an Eldorado too
He's got a 22 gun in his pocket for fun
He's got a razor in his shoe

(REFR-1....)

(INSTRUMENTAL....)

(VERS-3)

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

And he layed his eyes upon her
That's when the big scene began
And Leroy Brown he learned a lesson 'bout messin'
With the wife of a jealous man

(REFR-2)
He's bad, bad Leroy Brown
baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder that old King Kong
Meaner that a junkyard dog

(REFR-2...)

Badder that old King Kong
Meaner that a junkyard dog
