- Brown Eyes Lyrics / with translationsSailing down the coast in my little rowboat, oh
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..
Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
In my dream I met this girl, we fell in love
and she is a pearl.
I promised her I’d show her the world,
Now I’m awake and there is no girl.
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat,
oh
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..
Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man.
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
Now I heard that dreams come to life,
And if it's true she’ll be my wife.
Crazy they’d call me soon they’ll see.
We’ll be together in harmony.
I’ve seen a lot of girls that men admire, (echo)
and they’re fine, so fine
Not one of them compare to mine. (echo)
Not one of them compare to mine
She’s got the cutest little smile, yeah man. (echo)
She’s got the
cutest little smile
I’m looking for the one with big brown eyes.
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat,
(echo) In my little rowboat
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..(echo) Ain’t
found her yet got a
ways to go
Gotta find that girl and make her mine, yeah man (echo)
Make that
sweet girl mine
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
Gotta find that girl, yes, ah, ah ah
Brown eyes
Gotta find that girl, yes, ah that girl,
Hawaiian eyes
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat, (echo) In
my little rowboat
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..(echo) Ain’t
found her yet got a
ways to go
Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man (echo)
I’m gonna make that sweet girl mine
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
She’s the One
I’ve seen a lot of girls that men admire, (echo)
yes they’re fine, so fine
Not one of them compare to mine. (echo)
Not one of them compare to mine
She’s got the cutest little smile, yeah man. (echo)
She’s got the
cutest little smile
I’m looking for the one with big brown eyes.
Sailing down the coast in my little rowboat,
(echo) In my little rowboat
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..(echo) Ain’t
found her yet got a
ways to go
Gotta find that girl and make her mine, (echo) find
that girl and make
her mine
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
Ain’t found her yet got a ways to go..
Gotta find that girl and make her mine,
yeah man
Oh she’s the one with the big brown eyes.
In my dream I met this girl, we fell in love
