G 
Well the south side of Chicago  
	A7 
Is the baddest part of town 
	   B7				C 
And if you go down there you'd better just beware 
     D7			G 
Of a man named Leroy Brown 
 
 
Now Leroy's more than trouble 
You see he stands 'bout six foot four 
All the downtown ladies call him treetop lover 
All the men just call him 'sir' 
 
(Chorus:) 
	 G 
And he's bad, bad,  Leroy Brown 
     A7 
The baddest man in the whole damn town 
B7		     C 
Badder than old King Kong 
D7			G 
Meaner than a junkyard dog 
 
 
Now Leroy he's a gambler 
And he likes his fancy clothes 
And he likes to wear his diamond rings 
In front of everybody's nose 
 
He got a custom Continental 
He got an El Dorado too 
He got a 32 gun in his pocket for fun 
He got a razor in his shoe 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Well Friday 'bout a week ago 
Leroy shooting dice 
And at the edge of the bar sat a girl name Doris 
And oh that girl looked nice 
 
Well he cast his eyes upon her 
And the trouble soon began 
And Leroy Brown learned a lesson 'bout messin' 
With the wife of a jealous man 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Well the two men took to fightin' 
And when they pulled him from the floor 
Leroy looked like a jigsay puzzle 
With a couple of pieces gone 
 
(Chorus)
