Brown Eyed Handsome Man Lyrics & Chords By Lyle Lovett

He was arrested on charges of unemployment
Standing at the witness stand
The judge's wife, she told the district attorney
"Free that brown eyed man
You want your job, you better free that brown eyed man"

I flying across the desert in a TWA
Saw a woman walking across the sand
She'd been a-walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay
To meet a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man

And now way back in history two thousand years
In fact ever since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shedding some tears
Over  brown eyed handsome men
A lot of trouble over brown eyed handsome men

And the Milo de Venus was a beautiful lass
She had the world in the palm of her hand
She lost both her arms in a wrestling match
Over a brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a, a brown eyed handsome man

And a beautiful a daughter couldn't make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mother said, "Darlin', go out and find yourself
A brown eyed handsome man
Like your real daddy was a brown eyed handsome man"
He was a brown eyed handsome man
Don't you know, he was a brown eyed handsome man

Well there was three to the count, there was nobody on
He hit a high fly into the stands
He rounded third, he was headed for home
He was a brown eyed handsome man
Like Henry Aaron, he was a browned eyed handsome man
He was a brown eyed handsome man
Don't you know, he was a brown eyed handsome man

He was arrested on charges of unemployment
He was standing at the witness stand
The judge's wife, she told the district attorney
"You better free that brown eyed man
You want your job, you better free that brown eyed
Free that brown eyed, free that brown eyed
