Bad, Bad Leroy Brown

Now the south side of Chicago is (it's) the baddest part of town

And if you (you're gonna) go down there, you better (just) beware

Of a man (cat) named Leroy Brown

Now Leroy (Brown) he's trouble, and he stands about six feet four

All the downtown ladies call him: "treetop lover," the studs they call him: "Sir"

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown, meanest (baddest) man (cat) in the whole damn town

Badder that old King Kong and (he's) meaner that a junkyard dog

Now Leroy he's a gambler, and he likes (digs) his (those) fancy clothes

He likes to wave his (that) (great big / big fat) (shinny) diamond ring(s)

Under (In front of) everybody's nose

He's got a custom Continental, he's got an El Dorado too

He's got a 22 (32) gun in his pocket for fun

He's got a razor in his (the razor in the) shoe

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown, meanest (baddest) man (cat) in the whole damn town

Badder that old King Kong, and (he's) meaner that a junkyard dog

Now Friday - 'bout a week ago, Leroy shootin' dice

And at the end (edge) of the bar, sat (was) a lady (chick) named Dorris (Morris)

Man she sure looked nice

And (Well/Then) he laid his eyes upon her,

That's when the big scene (trouble soon) began

And Leroy Brown he learned a lesson 'bout messin' with the wife of a jealous man

(Yeah) He's bad, bad Leroy Brown, meanest (baddest) man (cat) in the whole damn town

Badder that old King Kong, (and) (he's) meaner that a junkyard dog
