Lyrics for Brown Eyed Handsome Man

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' across the desert in a TWA I saw a woman walk across the sand She been a walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay To meet a brown eyed handsome man Her destination was the brown eyed handsome man Way back in history, three thousand years Back ever since the world began There's been a whole lot of good women shed a tear For 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 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 Milo Venus was a beautiful lass She had the world in the palm of her hand She lost both her arms in a wrestling 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 Round the third, he was headed for home It was a brown eyed handsome man That won the game, it was a brown eyed handsome man
