Bob Marley Lyrics

"Mr. Brown" lyrics


(Whooh - ooh - ooh - ooh)
(Is Mr Brown?) Mr Brown is a clown who rides to town in a coffin.
(Well, he be found) In the coffin, where there is three crows on top and two is laughing.
Oh, what a confusion! Ooh, yeah, yeah!
What a botheration! Ooh, now, now!

Who is Mr Brown? I wanna know now!
He is nowhere to be found.
From Mandeville to Slygoville, coffin runnin' around,
Upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town,
Asking for Mr Brown.
From Mandeville to Slygoville, coffin runnin' around,
upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town,
Asking for Mr Brown.
I wanna know who (is Mr Brown)?
Is Mr Brown controlled by remote?

O-o-oh, calling duppy conqueror,
I'm the ghost-catcher!
This is your chance, oh big, big Bill bull-bucka,
Take your chance! Prove yourself! Oh, yeah!

Down in parade
People runnin like a masquerade.
The police make a raid,
But the people - oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah - they think it
failed.

What a thing in town
Crows chauffeur-driven around,
Skankin' as if they have never known
The man they call "Mr Brown".

I can tell you where he's from now:
From Mandeville to Slygoville, coffin runnin' around,
Upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town,
Asking for Mr Brown.
From Mandeville to Slygoville -
