Brown Eyed Handsome Man Lyrics[Verse 1]
He was arrested on charges of unemployment
He was standing at the witness stand
The judge's wife, she told the district attorney
"You better free that brown eyed man
You want your job, you better free that brown eyed man"

[Verse 2]
Well, I flying across the desert on a TWA
I saw a woman walking 'cross the sand
She'd been walking thirty miles en route to Bombay
To meet a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a, a brown eyed handsome man
[Verse 3]
And now way back in history two thousand years
In fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shedding some tears
Over a brown eyed handsome man
A lot of trouble with a, a brown eyed handsome man

[Verse 4]
And the Venus de Milo was a beautiful lass
She had the world in the palm of her hands
She lost both her arms in a wrestling match
Over a, a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a, a brown eyed handsome man

[Verse 5]
And a beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mama said, "Darlin', just go out and find yourself a
A brown eyed handsome man
Like your real daddy was a brown eyed handsome man"
He was a, a brown eyed handsome man
Don't you know, he was a, a brown eyed handsome man

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 6]
Well, there was three to the count, there wasn't nobody on
He hit a high fly into the stands
He rounded third, he was headed for home
He was a, a brown eyed handsome man
Like Henry Aaron, he was a brown eyed handsome man
He was a, a brown eyed handsome man
Don't you know, he was a, a brown eyed
[Outro]
He was arrested on charges of unemployment
He was standing at the witness stand
The judge's wife, she told the district attorney
"You better free that brown eyed man
You want your job, you better free that brown eyed
Free that brown eyed, free that brown eyed"
