Notes: This is a cover of a song originally written by Hank Penny but the Heavy Trash version would appear to be of the Wynonie Harris recording [RELEASE / LYRICS] due to the fact that both artists refer to “brown eyes” whereas in the Hank Penny original the eye-colour is blue.

-
Well now just because you’re pretty
And you think you’re mighty wise
You tell me that you love me
Then you roll those big brown eyes
When I saw you last week
Your eyes was turning black
Go find the guy that beat you up
Ask him to take you back

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me
‘Cause I can tell you’ve been out on a spree
It’s plain that you’re lyin’
When you say that you’ve been cryin’
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

Well I used to spend my money
To make you look real sweet
So That I could be proud of you
As we walk down the street
Now don’t ask me to dress you up
In satin or in silk
‘Cause your eyes look like a two cherries
In a glass of buttermilk

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me
‘Cause I can tell that you been out on a spree
Woo!
Well it’s plain, it’s plain that you’re lyin’
When you said that you’ve been cryin’
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

Roll it baby

Well I guess our little romance
Has finally simmered down
Well you want to join the circus
‘Cause you’d make a real good clown
Your eyes look like a roadmap
I’m scared just to smell your breath
Well you better shut those peepers
Before you bleed to death

Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me
‘Cause I can tell you’ve been out on a spree
Woo
Well it’s plain that you’re lyin’
When you said that you’ve been cryin’
Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me

Those bloodshot eyes
