[Verse]
          G
Well, the south side of Chicago
       A7
Is the baddest part of town.
           B7
And if you go down there
            C               D          C        G
You better just beware of a man named Leroy Brown.
         G
Now, Leroy more than trouble,
           A7
You see he stand about 'bout six foot four.
        B7                        C
All the downtown ladies call him "treetop lover."
        D         C        G
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
    D            C        G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Verse]

       G
Now, Leroy, he a gambler,
       A7
and he likes his fancy clothes.
           B7               C
And he likes to wave diamond rings
             D     C     G
in front of everybody's nose.
     G
He got a custom Continental.
            A7
He got an Eldorado too.
           B7                    C
He got a thirty-two gun in his pocket for fun.
           D      C     G
He got a razor in his shoe.


[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
     D             C     G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Verse]

          G
Well, Friday 'bout a week ago,
   A7
Leroy's shootin' dice.
             B7                    C
And at the edge of the bar sat a girl name of Doris
     D          C         G
and oh, that girl look nice
           G
Well, he cast his eyes upon her
            A7
and the trouble soon began.
         B7                      C
And Leroy Brown, he learned a lesson 'bout messin'
           D         C      G
with the wife of a jealous man


[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
    D             C        G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Bridge]

      G
Well, the two men took to fightin'
              A7
And when they pulled them from the floor,
B7                  C                    D          C      G
Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle with a couple of pieces gone.


[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
    D             C        G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.

            B7                   C
Yes, you were badder than old King Kong
    D             C        G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Outro]
