Brown Eyed Handsome Man Songtext

von Chuck Berry

Arrested on charges of unemployment,
He was sittin' in the witness stand.
The judge's wife called up the district attorney,
She said: Free that brown eyed man (if you want your job),
You better free that brown eyed man.
Flyin' 'cross the desert in a TWA,
I saw a woman walkin' 'cross the sand.
She'd been a-walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay,
To meet a brown eyed handsome man.
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man.
Way back in hist'ry, three thousand years,
In fact, ever since the world began,
There's been a whole lotta good women,
Sheddin' tears over a brown eyed handsome man,
It's a lot of trouble with a brown eyed handsome man.
Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind
Between a doctor an a lawyer man,
Her mother told her daughter: Darlin',
Go out and find yourself a brown eyed handsome man
Just like your daddy, he's a brown eyed handsome man.
Milo Venus was a beautiful lass,
She had the world in the palm of her hand,
She lost both her arms in a wrestlin' match,
To meet a brown eyed handsome man.
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man.
Two-three the count, with nobody on,
He hit a high-fly into the stand,
Rounded third he was headed for home,
It was a brown eyed handsome man, that won the game,
It was a brown eyed handsome man...
