Brown Eyed Handsome Man Lyrics

Arrested on charges of unemployment 

he was sitting in the witness stand 

the judge's wife called up the district attorney 

said free that brown eyed man 

you want your job you better free that brown eyed man 



Flying across the desert in a TWA 

I saw a woman walking across the sand 

she been a-walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay 

to reach a brown eyed handsome man 

her destination was a 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 shedding tears 

for a brown eyed handsome man 

a lot of trouble - was a brown eyed handsome man 



The 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 

that's what your daddy is a brown eyed handsome man 



Milo Venus was a beautiful lass 

she had the world in the palm of her hand 

but she lost both her arms in a wrestling match 

to win a brown eyed handsome man 

she fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man 



Well, two, three the 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 man
