Lyrics
[verse]
Down on the south side of the old brick town
There's a fellow they call Big Tommy Stone
Wears a diamond ring the size of a quarter
Drives a car louder than a saxophone
[chorus]
Bad, bad Tommy Stone
Meanest cat that this old town's known
He struts around like he owns the street
But even he can meet defeat
[verse]
Now Tommy thought he was the coolest cat in town
Til he winked at Sally, the sheriff's only bride
Sheriff didn't say a word, just rolled his sleeves up slow
And that's the night Tommy's pride went out the side
[chorus]
Bad, bad Tommy Stone
Meanest cat that this old town's known
He struts around like he owns the street
But even he can meet defeat
[bridge]
They found his hat out in the parking lot
His fancy car all dented like a tin can
Now he walks around a whole lot quieter
Learned his lesson 'bout messing with a family man
[chorus]
Bad, bad Tommy Stone
Meanest cat that this old town's known
He struts around like he owns the street
But even he can meet defeat
