Flying cross the desert in a TWA I saw a woman walking cross the sand
Been a walking thirty miles on route to L.A. to get a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man

Milo de 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 get a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man

Way back in hist'ry three thousand years, in fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of women who shedding tears
For a brown eyed handsome man
It was the trouble was a brown eyed handsome man

Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind between a doctor and a lawyer man
Mama told her, darling, go out and find yourself a brown eyed handsome man
Just like your daddy was a brown eyed handsome man

Arrested on charges of unemployment, sitting in the witness stand
The Judge's wife called up the district attorney said you free that brown eyed man
If you want your job you better free that brown eyed man

Way back in hist'ry three thousand years, in fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of women who shedding tears
For a brown eyed handsome man
It was the trouble was a brown eyed handsome man
