Commentary
userMost fans think of Chuck Berry and his classic guitar riffs, but this song is proof that he was one of the best lyricists to come down the rock 'n' roll pike.

"A whole lotta good women shedding tears over a brown-eyed handsome man, lotta trouble with a brown-eyed handsome man..." No kidding, I've got one at home!

I love this song. I heard Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley sing this on The Complete Million Dollar Quartet. Thanks a million for the vid.

Are you sure? I thought they wrote George Thorogood's BAD TO THE BONE about you. LOL

Lyrics:
Arrested on charges of unemployment,He was sittin' in the witness stand.The judge's wife called up the district attorney,she said: Free that brown eyed man (if you want your job),You better free that brown eyed man.Flyin' 'cross the desert in a TWA,I saw a woman walkin' 'cross 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.Way back in hist'ry, three tousand years,in fact, ever since the world began,There's been a whole lotta good women,shedin' tears over a brown eyed handsome man,It's a lot of trouble with a brown eyed handsome man.Beautiful daugher couldn't make up her mindbetween a doctor an a lawyer man,her mother told her daughter: Darlin',go out and find yourself a brwon eyed handsome manjust like your daddy, he's 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 wrestlin' match,to meet a brown eyed handsome man.She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man.Two-three the count, with nobody on,he hit a high-fly into the stand,rounded third he was headed for home,it was a brown eyed handsome man, that won the game,It was a brown eyed handsome man...
