Is the baddest part of town
And if you go down there you better just beware
Of a man named Leroy Brown
Well now Leroy's more than trouble
And he stand about six foot four
All those down-town ladies call him treetop lover
And the men just call him Sir
CHORUS:
And he's bad, bad Leroy Brown
Baddest man in the whole damn town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
Now Leroy, he's a gambler
And he likes his fancy clothes
And he likes to have his diamond rings
In front of everybody's nose
He's got a custom Continental
He's got an El Dorado, too
He's got a .32 gun in his pocket for fun
And he got a razor in his shoe
Chorus
Well, Friday 'bout a week ago
Ah Leroy shootin' dice
And at the edge of the bar sat a girl name Doris
And, oh that girl looked so nice
Well he cast his eyes upon her
The trouble soon began
And Leroy Brown learned his lesson
About a-messin' with the wife of a jealous man
Chorus
Well, the two men took to fightin'
And when they pulled them from the floor
Ah Leroy looked like a jigsaw puzzle
With a couple of pieces gone
Chorus x 2
Yeah, he was badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog
