Brown Eyed Girl (Van Morrison cover) Lyrics
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Go!
I hear a song, it makes me think of a girl I used to know
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now
Hey now where did we go?
Yeah, days when the rains came
Way down in the hollow
Yeah, playin' a new game
Laughin' and a runnin', hey, hey, hey
Skippin' and a jumpin', yeah, yeah
In the misty morning fog
Oh baby and our hearts a thumpin', and you
My brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when
We used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
I hear a song, it makes me think of a girl I used to know
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now
Now that the years gone by
Yeah, now that I'm on my own
Saw you just the other day
Oh my, baby you have grown
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometimes I am overcome just thinkin' 'bout it
Makin' love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when
Yeah, we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
I hear a song, it makes me think of a girl I used to know
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now
Yeah, days when the rains came
Way down in the hollow
Yeah, playin' a new game
Skippin' and a jumpin', yeah, yeah
In the misty morning fog
Oh baby and our hearts a thumpin', and you
You, my brown eyed girl
We used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now
Yeah, now that I'm on my own
Saw you just the other day
Oh my, baby you have grown
Sometimes I am overcome just thinkin' 'bout it
Makin' love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
You, my brown eyed girl
You, my brown eyed girl
Yeah, we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la la la la
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio
Hey, hey, hey
I sing along when I hear it on the radio now

i hate this cover
I felt the same way at first too, but after a while it really grew on me. Unfortunatly I still don't understand the video.
the video is so funnny, tho i've only seen it once
It's a great song. The video is hilarious
you have to watch the video twice so you can see it from a different perspective
Is it just me, or is the video absolutely disgusting... and hilarious? I mean, you go on hoping for a happy ending, then you're crushed, then you're like "AWWWWW" and then you HAVE to laugh!
Anyway, I don't know why people don't like this cover. It's not meant to be just like the original; you can still ike Van Morrison's. This one just happens to be different, but good too.
The problem is, you can't just look at a cover song and then compare it to the original in the same view point. Cover songs are meant to be seen in a different view. When a song is covered, the artist puts a little bit of their touch into it, while still paying homage to the original artist, that is if they even care about the artist they covered. Looking at it from a different perspective, it's not a bad cover.
why does every effing band cover this song?! i dont get it.
I think this song is brilliant... see it as a stand-alone song and don't compare it to the original. Is it a good song? In my opinion, yes it is. Reminds me of... happier days.
its a remake, but still an ok song. i wish they would have sticked to making their own songs though.
