Buddy Holly - 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
