  {t:BAD, BAD LEROY BROWN}

  {st: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."

  

  {c:Chorus:}

           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 [C]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.

  

  {c: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

  

  {c:Chorus}

     

           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.

  

  {c:Out Chorus:}

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

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