LYRICS

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 's more than trouble. He stands 'bout six foot four. All the downtown ladies call him "Treetop Lover." All the men just call him "Sir."

And he'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'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, and Eldorado too. He's got a thirty two gun in his pocket for fun. He's got a razor in his shoe.

And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown; baddest man in the whole damned town; badder than old King Kong, and meaner than a junkyard dog

Well, Friday, about a week ago, Leroy shootin' dice. At the edge of the bar was a girl named a Deloris. And, ooh, that girl looked nice

Well, he cast his eyes upon her. And the trouble soon began. Leroy Brown learned a lesson 'bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man.

And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown; baddest man in the whole damned town; badder than old King Kong, and meaner than a junkyard dog

Well, the two men took to fightin'. And, when they pulled them from the floor, Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.

And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown; baddest man in the whole damned town; badder than old King Kong, and meaner than a junkyard dog
