    "From South Alabama come a country boy..." What song is this a lyric from?

    Question #63976. Asked by mementoflash. (Mar 27 06 9:55 AM)

    Bad, Bad Leroy Brown by Jim Croce. (He said he was lookin' for a man named Jim.)

    It's Jim Croce, all right, but "You don't mess around with Jim" is the song. http://www.guitaretab.com/c/croce-jim/4403.html

    Ha! And the song has been going through my head since I answered this and I still didn't realize it. My bad!

    The two songs are actually very similar - they tell nearly the same story, but Leroy Brown is much more polished.
