Chuck Berry
Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
[Verse 1]
Arrested on charges of unemployment
He was sitting in the witness stand
The judge's wife looked at the district attorney
Said to free that brown eyed man
You want your job, you'd better free that brown eyed man
[Verse 2]
Hey, lying across the desert in a twa
I saw a woman walkin' across the sand
She'd been walkin' thirty miles in a route to Bombay
To meet a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man
[Verse 3]
Way back in history, three thousand years
In fact, ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shedding tears
Over a brown eyed handsome man
There's lots of trouble with a brown eyed handsome man
[Verse 4]
Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mother told her darling, "Go out and find
Yourself a brown eyed handsome man
Just like your daddy, he's a brown eyed handsome man
[Verse 5]
Well, Milo Venus was a beautiful lass
She had the world in the palm of her hand
She lost both of her arms in a wrestling match
To meet a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man
[Verse 6]
Two, three count with nobody on
He hit a high fly into the stand
Rounding third he was headed for home
It was a brown eyed handsome man
That won the game, it was a brown eyed handsome
