BAD, BAD LEROY BROWN Jim Croce

Well, the [G]south side of Chicago is the [A7]baddest part of town.

And if you [B7]go down there you better j[C]ust beware of a [D7]man

name of Leroy [G]Brown.

Now, Leroy more than trouble, You see he [A7]stand about 'bout six foot four.

All the [B7]downtown ladies call him "[C]treetop lover."

All the [D7]men just call him "[G]sir."

And he's [G]bad, bad, Leroy Brown,

The [A7]baddest man in the whole damn town.

[B7]Badder than old [C]King Kong

And [D]meaner than a [G]junkyard dog.

Now, [G]Leroy, he a gambler and he [A7]likes his fancy clothes.

And he [B7]likes to wave dia[C]mond rings in front of [D7]everybody's [G]nose.

He got a [G]custom Continental, He got an [A7]Eldorado too.

He got a [B7]thirty-two gun in his po[C]cket for fun.

He got a [D7]razor in his [G]shoe.

And he's [G]bad, bad, Leroy Brown,

The [A7]baddest man in the whole damn town.

[B7]Badder than old [C]King Kong

And [D]meaner than a [G]junkyard dog.

Well, [G]Friday 'bout a week ago, L[A7]eroy's shootin' dice.

And at the [B7]edge of the bar sat a [C]girl name of Doris

and oh, [D7]that girl look [G]nice

Well, he [G]cast his eyes upon her and the [A7]trouble soon began.

And [B7]Leroy Brown, he learned a [C]lesson 'bout messin'

with the [D7]wife of a jealous [G]man

And he's [G]bad, bad, Leroy Brown,

The [A7]baddest man in the whole damn town.

[B7]Badder than old [C]King Kong

And [D]meaner than a [G]junkyard dog.

Well, [G]the two men took to fightin and when they [A7]pulled them from the floor,

[B7]Leroy looked like a [C]jigsaw puzzle with a [D7]couple of pieces [G]gone.

And he's [G]bad, bad, Leroy Brown,

The [A7]baddest man in the whole damn town.

[B7]Badder than old [C]King Kong

And [D]meaner than a [G]junkyard dog.

Yes, you were [B7]badder than old King [C]Kong

And [D]meaner than a [C]junkyard [G]dog.
