 F Dm   G C

[Verse 1]

        F                    A7
Well, way down yonder in Louisville,
 D                          D7
Lived a cat named Big Bad Bill,
 G
I want to tell ya,
 C              F             Dm              G         C
That cat was tough, and he certainly could strut his stuff

{Verse 2|}

 F                     A7
He had the town all scared to death,
           D               D7
When he walked by people held their breath,
 G                             C
He was a fighting man, sure enough,

Big Bad Bill is sweet William now,
 F                   F7          A7
Married life done changed him somehow,
          Bb                    G
He's the man the town used to fear,
           F                        D7
Now they all call him sweet pappa Willie dear,
 G                   G7
Stronger than Samson I declare,
         C                        C7
Til' a brown skinned woman done bobbed his hair

{Bridge}}

 F                    C        F    G C
Big Bad Bill don't fight any more
 F                      F7                 A7
He's doing the dishes and he mops up the floor

{Chorus}

         Bb
Well he used to spend his night out
    G
Looking for a fight,
  F                                 D7
Now he gotta see his woman every night,

Big Bad Bill is sweet William now,

    G
Looking for a fight,
