Writers: Hank Penny / Ruth Hall Published: Lois, BMI From: unreleased Source: Pop Catastrophe 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. Heavy Trash have played this live with Simon Chardiet on lead vocals The lyrics given here are as they performed at Manning Bar, Sydney University, Australia on 13 December 2009. |
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 Well I used to spend my money Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me Roll it baby Well I guess our little romance Don’t roll those bloodshot eyes at me Those bloodshot eyes |
