[Verse 1]

          G
Well, the south side of Chicago
       A7
Is the baddest part of town.
           B7
And if you go down there
           C                D7*         C        G  D7
You better just beware of a man name of 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."
        D7*      C            G  D7
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*           C          G  D7
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Verse 2]

     G
Now, Leroy, he a gambler,
       A7
and he like his fancy clothes.
       B7           C
And he like to wave diamond rings
            D7*  C      G  D7
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.
         D7*   C      G    D7
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
    D7*           C          G  D7
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Verse 3]

      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
    D7*      C         G   D7
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'
         D7*       C       G   D7
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
    D7*           C          G  D7
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Verse 4]

          G
Well, the two men took to fightin'
              A7
And when they pulled them from the floor,
B7                  C                    D7*       C      G    D7
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
    D7*           C          G  D7
And meaner than a junkyard dog.

         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*           C          G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.


[Otro]

              B7                   C
Yes, you were badder than old King Kong
    D7*           C        G
And meaner than a junkyard dog.
