Well 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, more than trouble |
|
You see he stand 'bout six foot four |
|
All the downtown ladies call him Treetop Lover |
|
All the men just call him Sir |
|
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown |
|
The baddest man in the whole damned town |
|
Badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard dog |
|
Now Leroy, he a gambler |
|
And he like his fancy clothes |
|
And he like to wave his diamond rings |
|
In front of everybody's nose |
|
He got a custom Continental |
|
He got an Eldorado too |
|
He got a .32 gun in his pocket for fun |
|
He got a razor in his shoe |
|
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown |
|
The baddest man in the whole damned town |
|
Badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard dog |
|
Well, Friday 'bout a week ago |
|
Leroy shootin' dice |
|
And at the edge of the bar |
|
Sat a girl named Doris and ooh, that girl looked nice |
|
Well, he cast his eyes upon her |
|
And the trouble soon began |
|
'Cause Leroy Brown learned a lesson |
|
'Bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man |
|
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown |
|
The baddest man in the whole damned town |
|
Badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard 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 |
|
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown |
|
The baddest man in the whole damned town |
|
Badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard dog |
|
And it's bad, bad Leroy Brown |
|
The baddest man in the whole damned town |
|
Badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard dog |
|
Yeah, badder than old King Kong |
|
And meaner than a junkyard dog |
