great big sea – old brown’s daughter lyrics

Loading...

there is an ancient party at the other end of town.
he keeps a little grocery store, and the ancient’s name is brown.
he has a lovely daughter, such a treat i never saw.
oh, i only hope someday to be the old man’s son-in-law.

old brown sells from off his shelf most anything you please.
he’s got juice hops for the little boys, lollipops and cheese.
his daughter minds the store and it’s a treat to see her serve.
i’d like to run away with her but i don’t have the nerve.

and it’s old brown’s daughter is a proper sort of girl.
old brown’s daughter is as fair as any pearl.
i wish i was a lord, mayor, marquis or an earl.
and blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.
blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.

well poor old brown now has trouble with the gout.
he grumbles in his little parlour when he can’t get out.
and when i make a purchase, lord, and she hands me the change…
that girl she makes me pulverized, i feel so very strange.

and it’s old brown’s daughter is a proper sort of girl.
old brown’s daughter is as fair as any pearl.
i wish i was a lord, mayor, marquis or an earl.
and blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.
blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.

miss brown, she smiles so sweetly when i say a tender word.
oh, but old brown says that she must wed a marquis or a lord.
and i don’t suppose it’s ever one of those things i will be…
but, by jingo, next election i will run for trinity!

and it’s old brown’s daughter is a proper sort of girl.
old brown’s daughter is as fair as any pearl.
i wish i was a lord, mayor, marquis or an earl.
and blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.
blow me if i wouldn’t marry old brown’s girl.
