Brown Eyed Girl [takes 7–11] Songtext
von Van Morrison

Rollin′ on seven
"Brown eyed girl", number seven

One
One, two, a-one, two, three

One moment, please

One
One, two, one, two, three

Hey, when did we...

Beginning, the very beginning of that intro is really cool

Here we go (role eight, man)
Rolling on nine

One, two, a-one, two, three

Hey, where did we go?

Rolling on ten
A-one, two, one, two, three

Hey, where did we go?
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow
Playin' a new game


Laughin′ and a-runnin', hey-hey
Skippin' and a-jumpin′
In the misty morning fog with
Our, our hearts a-thumping and you

Brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

And whatever happened...

Rollin′ on eleven
"Brown eyed girl" on eleven

Here we go
One, a-one, two, one, two

Hey, where did we go?
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow
Playin' a new game

Laughin′ and a-runnin', hey-hey
Skippin′ and a-jumpin'
In the misty morning fog with
Our hearts a-thumping and you

Brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl


And whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow?
Going down the old mine with a
Transistor radio

Standing in the sunlight laughing
Try to hide a rainbow′s wall
Slipping and sliding
All along the waterfall with you

Brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-tee-da
Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la tee-da, la-tee-da

So hard to find my way
Now I'm on my own
Singin' you just the other day, babe
My, how you have grown

Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometimes I′m overcome thinking ′bout it
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you

My brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

Do you remember when we used to sing?
Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-tee-da
Sha-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la-tee-da, la-tee-da

Do you remember?
Do you remember the day?
Laying down and making love behind the stadium
Lord almighty
Should I make you wake the whole town?
Lord almighty
I want you back one more time
Oh, Lord
