Let me tell you people
About something I have found
I got me a brand new baby
Because her eyes are brown

Don't get yourself a blue-eyed girl
Because she just won't do
Green eyes be the same thing
They be the death of you

I got me trouble
She only bring you down
So if you want some true lovin'
Make sure her eyes are brown

I got me a brown-eyed girl
Brown-eyed girl, brown-eyed girl

Let me tell you people
About something I have found
I got me a brand new baby
Because her eyes are brown

Brown-eyed girl, brown-eyed girl
Brown-eyed girl
That's why, that's why
That's why, that's why
I got me a brown-eyed girl
Brown-eyed girl, brown-eyed girl
