SOL
Well, the south side of Chicago
LA7
Is the baddest part of town.
SI7
And if you go down there
DO RE7 SOL
You better just beware of a man name of Leroy Brown.
Now, Leroy more than trouble,
LA7
You see he stand about 'bout six foot four.
SI7 DO
All the downtown ladies call him "treetop lover."
RE7 SOL
All the men just call him "sir."
Chorus SOL
And he's bad, bad, Leroy Brown,
LA7
The baddest man in the whole damn town.
SI7 DO
Badder than old King Kong
RE DO
And meaner than a junkyard dog.
Now, Leroy, he a gambler,
and he likes his fancy clothes.
And he likes to wave diamond rings
in front of everybody's nose.
He got a custom Continental.
He got an Eldorado too.
He got a thirty-two gun in his pocket for fun.
He got a razor in his shoe.
(Chorus)
Well, Friday 'bout a week ago,
Leroy's shootin' dice.
And at the edge of the bar sat a girl name of Doris
and oh, that girl look nice
Well, he cast 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
(Chorus)
SOL
Well, the two men took to fightin'
LA7
And when they pulled them from the floor,
SI7 DO RE7 SOL
Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.
Out Chorus: B7 C
Yes, you were badder than old King Kong
RE DO SOL
And meaner than a junkyard dog.
