with your Brownsville curls
you're my heart and love,
how things never turn out
the way you had them planned
The only things we knew for sure
And you know there was something about
you babe that I liked very much,
always too good for this world
Just like you always said
there was something about me
you liked that I left behind in the
with your Brownsville curls
shining like the moon afloat
show me all around this world
Well, we crossed the panhandle
and then we headed towards Amarillo
He owned a wrecking lot outside of town,
She had a red hair tied back
She was come rolling up in a trail of dust
She said, Henry ain't here,
And he'll be back in a little while
Shining like the moon above
Shining like the moon above
Shining like the moon above
with your Brownsville curls
shining like the moon in the pearl
show me I'm around this world
With your Brownsville curls
You're my heart and love,
Brownsville girl, Brownsville girl
