Lyrics

  1. Love’s a little game that’s got me guessing
    Distressing my mind
    Don’t know where I stand
    Oh, ain’t love just grand
    Eyes can cast a spell without revealing
    Their feeling, I find
    I’m up in the air
    About a certain pair

Chorus
Two brown eyes are making me blue
Oooh those eyes, what damage they do
Do they care a little or a lot
Or do they love me not?
They’ve got me on the spot
Those two brown eyes
They’re driving me mad
Two red lips are there to be had
That’s why my poor heart cries
I’m blue over two brown eyes

  1. They’ve got traffic signals like the cop lights
    Both stoplights and go
    They’re not red or green
    But that’s what they mean
    There are certain glances that caress me
    And yes me, I know
    Other ones that say
    “Just keep those arms away”
