In the south side of Chicago, is the baddest part of town.
E7 F
And if you go down there, you better just beware,
G7 C
of a man named Leroy Brown.
C D7
Now Leroy, more than trouble. You see he stand bout six foot four.
E7 F
And the downtown ladies call him tree top lover,
G7 C
and the men just call him sir.
Chorus...
C D7
And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown. The baddest man in the whole damn town.
E7 F G F C
Badder than a ole King Kong, an meaner than a junkyard dog.
C D7
Now Leroy, he's a gambler. And he likes his fancy clothes.
E7 F G7 C
And he likes to wave his diamond rings, in front of everybody's nose.
C D7
He got a custom Continental. He got an Eldorado too.
E7 F
He got a thirty two gun, in his pocket for fun,
G7 C
he got a razor in his shoe.
(chorus)
C D7
Well friday, bout a week ago. Leroy, shootin dice.
E7 F
At the edge of the bar, sat a girl named Doris.
G7 C C
And ooh dat girl looked nice. Well he casts his eyes upon her,
D7 E7 F
and trouble soon began. And Leroy Brown learned a lesson,
G7 C
bout messin with the wife of a jealous man.
(chorus)
C D7
Well the two men, took to fightin, and when they pulled them from the floor.
E7 F
Leroy looked like a jig saw puzzle,
G7 C
with a couple of pieces gone.
