Lyrics A Pair of Brown Eyes (Live At the Olympia, Paris In 2012) - The Pogues
One
summer
evening
drunk
to
hell
I
sat
there
nearly
lifeless
An
old
man
in
the
corner
sang
Where
the
water
lilies
grow
And
on
the
jukebox
Johnny
sang
About
a
thing
called
love
And
it′s
how
are
you
kid
and
what's
your
name
And
how
would
you
bloody
know?
In
blood
and
death
′neath
a
screaming
sky
I
lay
down
on
the
ground
And
the
arms
and
legs
of
other
men
Were
scattered
all
around
Some
cursed,
some
prayed,
some
prayed
then
cursed
Then
prayed
and
bled
some
more
And
the
only
thing
that
I
could
see
Was
a
pair
of
brown
eyes
that
was
looking
at
me
But
when
we
got
back,
labeled
parts
one
to
three
There
was
no
pair
of
brown
eyes
waiting
for
me
And
a
rovin'
a
rovin'
a
rovin′
I′ll
go
For
a
pair
of
brown
eyes
I
looked
at
him
he
looked
at
me
All
I
could
do
was
hate
him
While
Ray
and
Philomena
sang
Of
my
elusive
dream
I
saw
the
streams,
the
rolling
hills
Where
his
brown
eyes
were
waiting
And
I
thought
about
a
pair
of
brown
eyes
That
waited
once
for
me
So
drunk
to
hell
I
left
the
place
Sometimes
crawling
sometimes
walking
A
hungry
sound
came
across
the
breeze
So
I
gave
the
walls
a
talking
And
I
heard
the
sounds
of
long
ago
From
the
old
canal
And
the
birds
were
whistling
in
the
trees
Where
the
wind
was
gently
laughing
And
a
rovin'
a
rovin′
a
rovin'
I′ll
go
For
a
pair
of
brown
eyes
