Brown Eyed Handsome Man lyrics

(Chuck Berry)

Flyin` cross the desert in a TWA
I saw a woman walkin` cross the sand
She`d been a walkin` thirty miles on route to LA
To get a brown eyed handsome man.
Her destination was 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 wrestlin` match
To get a brown eyed handsome man.
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man.

Way back in hist`ry thee thousand years in fact
Ever since the world began
Been a whole lot of women who sheddin` tears
For a brown eyed handsome man.
It was the trouble was a brown eyed handsome man.

--- Instrumental ---

Beautiful daughter couldn`t make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mama told her darlin` go out and find
Yourself a brown eyed handsome man.
Just like your daddy is a brown eyed handsome man.

Arrested on charges of unemployment
Sittin` in the witness stand
The Judge`s wife called up the district attorney
She said free that brown eyed handsome man.
If you want your job you better free that brown eyed man.

Way back in hist`ry thee thousand years in fact
Ever since the world began
Been a whole lot of women who sheddin` tears
For a brown eyed handsome man.
It was the trouble was a brown eyed handsome man...
