Bad Bad Leroy Brown Lyrics - Photographs & Memories - Jim Croce

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 name of Leroy Brown 

Now Leroy more than trouble 

You see he stand 'bout six foot four 

All those 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 damn 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 

Under everybody's nose 

He got a custom Continental 

He got an Eldorado too 

He got a 32 gun in his pocket full a fun 

He got a razor in his shoe 

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 

Well Friday 'bout a week ago 

Leroy shootin' dice 

And at the edge of the bar 

Sat a girl named Doris 

And oh that girl looked nice 

Well he cast his eyes upon her 

And the trouble soon began 

And Leroy Brown had learned a lesson 

'Bout a-messin' with the wife of a jealous man 

And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown 

The baddest man in the whole damn town 

Badder than a-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 damn town 

Badder than old King Kong 

And meaner than a junkyard dog 

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 

Yeah he was badder than old King Kong 

And meaner than a junkyard dog.
