well 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
the studs they call him sir
he’s bad bad leroy brown
the baddest man in the whole damn town
badder than old king kong
and meaner than 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 gun in his pocket for fun
he got a razor in his shoe
yeah he’s bad bad leroy brown
the baddest man in the whole damn town
badder than old king kong
and he’s meaner than a junkyard dog
well 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
well he layed his eyes upon her
and 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 than old king kong
and meaner than a junkyard dog
he’s bad bad leroy brown
the baddest man in the whole damn town
a badder than old king kong
meaner than a junkyard dog
yeah he’s bad old king kong
badder than a junkyard dog
