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 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

Well, 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
