Rivers, Johnny - 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: You free that brown-eyed man
You want your job, you better free that brown-eyed man
Way back in history, three thousand years back
Every since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shed a tear
For a brown-eyed handsome man
That's what the trouble was: brown-eyed handsome 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 get a brown-eyed handsome man
Milo Venus was a beautiful lass
She had the world in the palm of her hand
She lost both her arms in a wrestling match
To get brown-eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown-eyed handsome man
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
That's what your daddy is: a brown-eyed handsome man
Way back in history, three thousand years
Back every since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shed a tear
For a brown-eyed handsome man
That's what the trouble was: brown-eyed handsome man
Two, three 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

Rivers, Johnny Brown Eyed Handsome Man Comments
Te esperamos en Argentina.
què maravillosa música, si habrè bailado, y bailo cuando la escucho, jajajaja, hasta que el esqueleto me dè para hacerlo!!
The bass player sounds slightly out of tune.
The reference to TWA sure dates this song. TWA went bankrupt in the past 20 years.
This song is very similar to "Centerfield" by John Fogarty. Check out the last verse especially.
Yep ..rounding third and heading for home . Lyrics pulled from this song. Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly also did a killer job
Yes, Chuck Berry wrote this song. Johnny Rivers covered many Chuck Berry songs.
Si habré bailado estos temas. Lo mejor de mí adolescencia. ❤
Love this song, cause I love a brown eyed handsome man!
Johnny Rivers , sencasional , único voz inconfundível
you did a very nice job improving the audio quality. Unfortunately, this is also true for the intoxicated women in the background...what can you do? Thanks !...
You can also hear intoxicated people in the background on MEMPHIS
One of my all time favorite singers.
Not you dear I like blue eyes..
Johnny Rivers deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
He'll never be indicted due to how he treats and has treated people. Google him, his divorce, how he stole Elvis' song, etc. Rivers is the most permanently disgruntled, cranky and unpleasant man - with an EXPLOSIVE temper - than I've ever known and I've known a few. If you want to know what he's like just ask around Big Sur where he's owned about 200 acres surrounding Ventana resort since about 1967....locals will tell you what he's like....not beloved by any means. JR will never get it, blaming others always with no insight into self.
Nice song.
Which bastard disliked this masterpiece?
Probably one of the drunks who were listening to the recording session at the night club.
Don't know but JR is entirely unlikable. Ask old-timers/locals around Big Sur if you want to know who he really is. It's not pretty
SJB1975 Hate much. 2 post now. You probably have more. Your giving one side of the story. Now for the other.
Nice song
Go Johnny go
HUBBA, HUBBA!
DEBBIE L You look outstanding
My destination is a blue-eyed handsome man. 😎
Fab!
One of the most talented, yet underrated, rockers of all time!
The absolute best !!!
