Bad, Bad Leroy Brown
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 a Leroy Brown
Now Leroy was in trouble
He stood about six feet four
All the downtown ladies call him 'Treetop lover'
All the studs they call him "Sir"
And 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 got a custom Continental
He got an El Dorado too
He got a .32 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's shootin' dice
And at the edge of the bar
Sat a lady named Dorris
And hmm, she sure looked nice
Well, he layed his eyes upon her
And the trouble soon began
And Leroy Brown, he learned a lesson 'bout a 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, ooh, he's bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
A badder than old King Kong
Meaner than a junkyard dog
Hey he's a badder than old King Kong
Badder than a junkyard dog
Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there
You better just beware
Of a man named a Leroy Brown
Now Leroy was in trouble
He stood about six feet four
All the downtown ladies call him 'Treetop lover'
All the studs they call him "Sir"
And 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 got a custom Continental
He got an El Dorado too
He got a .32 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

The baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
He's bad, ooh, he's bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damn town
A badder than old King Kong
Meaner than a junkyard dog
Hey he's a badder than old King Kong
Badder than a junkyard dog
