Brown Eyed Handsome Man - Nina Simone

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' across the desert in a TWA I saw a woman walk across the sand She been a walkin' thirty miles en route to Bombay To meet a brown eyed handsome man Her destination was the 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 shed a tear For a brown eyed handsome man It's a lot of trouble, with a brown eyed handsome man 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 Just 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 wrestling 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 Round the third, he was headed for home It was a brown eyed handsome man That won the game, it was a brown eyed handsome man

Rebrincando va en mi cabeza Deje que el amor te deje fuera Mientras sus ojos me piden Que sea claro, que explique todo Dudas, solo dudas siento en mi Dudas, solo dudas de frente a mi Se que existe quién se explica todo Los hombres y las cosas, el lugar, el tiempo Mas de mí no pretenderá nada Porque soy como el viento que busca siempre Y dudas, solo dudas ofreceré Dudas, solo dudas te daré Pero el amor es, es casi material Que nula la mirada, lo altera todo Y las dudas que siempre yo tengo Incertidumbre que siempre me ha vencido Amo y cuando amo, si soy yo Sin dudas siempre si soy yo Y si tu me amas, pequeña mía Siempre junto a mi habrá ocaciones de alegria Mientras parte la tarde callada El ocaso de fuego te da su encanto Ama y cuando amas eres tú Sin la duda eres simpre tú Ama y cuando amas eres tú Sin la duda eres siempre tú (Ama y cuando amas eres tú) Rebrincando va en mi cabeza (Sin la duda eres siempre tú) Deje que el amor te deje fuera (Ama y cuando amas eres tú) Y si tu me amas pequeña mía (Sin la duda eres siempre tú) Siempre junto a mi habrá ocaciones de alegría (Ama y cuando amas eres tú)
