Letra de Brown-Eyed Handsome Man
<p>[Verse 1]<br/>He was just an old country doctor in a little country town<br/>Fame and fortune had passed him by, though we never saw him frown<br/>As day by day in his kindly way, he'd serve us one and all<br/>Many a patient forgot to pay although Doc's fees were small<br/><br/>[Verse 2]<br/>Though he needed his dimes and there were times that he would receive a fee<br/>He'd pass it onto some poor soul that needed it worse than he<br/>He had to sell his furniture, couldn't pay his office rent<br/>So to a dusty room over a livery stable, Doc Brown and his satchel went<br/><br/>[Verse 3]<br/>And on the hitching post at the curb below to advertise his wares<br/>He nailed a little sign that read "Doc Brown has moved upstairs"<br/>One day he didn't answer when they knocked upon his door<br/>Old Doc Brown was lying down, but his soul was no more<br/>[Verse 4]<br/>They found him there in that old black suit, on his face was a smile of content<br/>But all the money they could find on him was a quarter and a copper cent<br/>So they opened up his ledger and what they saw gave their hearts a pull<br/>Beside each debtor's name old Doc had writ these words "Paid In Full"<br/><br/>[Verse 5]<br/>Old Doc should've had a funeral fine enough for a king<br/>It's a ghastly joke our town was broke and no one could give a thing<br/>'Cept Jones the undertaker, he did mighty well<br/>Donating an old iron casket he had never been able to sell<br/><br/>[Verse 6]<br/>And the funeral procession it wasn't much for grace and pomp and style<br/>But those wagon loads of mourners they stretched out for more than a mile<br/>We wanted to give him a monument we kinda figured we owed him one<br/>Because he made our town a better place for all the good he'd done<br/><br/>[Verse 7]<br/>We pulled up that old hitchin' post where Doc had nailed his sign<br/>We'd painted it white and to all of us, it certainly did look fine<br/>Now the rains and the snows have washed away our white trimmin's of paint<br/>There aren't nothing left but Doc's own sign and that's getting pretty faint<br/><br/>[Verse 8]<br/>But you can still see that old hitching post, as if an answer to our prayers<br/>Mutely tellin' the whole wide world Doc Brown has moved upstairs
