Croce Jim Life And Times Bad, Bad Leroy Brown Written by - Jim Croce Hit #1 - 7/73 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 named Leroy Brown Now Leroy more than trouble You see he stand 'bout six foot four All the downtown ladies call him 'Treetop Lover' All the men just call him 'Sir' Chorus: And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown The baddest man in the whole damned 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 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 shootin' dice And at the edge of the bar Sat a girl name of Doris And oh that girl looked 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 Well the two men took to fightin' And when they pulled them off the floor Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle With a couple of pieces gone Chorus (4 x's) Yes you were badder than old King Kong And meaner than a junkyard dog |
