***************** BROWN EYED HANDSOME MAN ******************
written by Chuck Berry
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Verse 1:
Flying across the desert in a TWA
I saw a woman walking across the sand
She been a-walkin thirty miles en route to L.A.
To get a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man
Verse 2:
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 get a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man
Chorus:
Way back in history three thousand years
Back every since the world began
There s been a lot of good women shed a tear
For a brown eyed handsome man
That s what the trouble was brown eyed handsome man
Verse 4: (a tone higher)
Beautiful daughter couldn t make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mother told her daughter go out and find yourself
A brown eyed handsome man
Just like your daddy is a brown eyed handsome man
Verse 5:
Arrested on charges of unemployment
He was sitting in the witness stand
The judge s wife called up the district attorney
Said you free that brown eyed man
You want your job you better free that brown eyed man
Chorus:
Way back in history three thousand years
Back every since the world began
There s been a lot of good women shed a tear
For a brown eyed handsome man
That s what the trouble is brown eyed handsome man
Thanks to Thomas Lindsey for the lyrics.
