LYRICS
I've got a brown eyed lover on the other side of town
I don't wanna keep her waiting
She's got me upside tongue tied twisted all around
I don't wanna keep her waiting

I don’t know
I cant tell
will this last
or just
come and go
it came
so fast
my feet feel cold
but my mind is for sure
and my heart remains

She’s got everything you’d want
wardrobe bought at the thrift shop
all my friends adore her
She reminds me of my mother
she wonders how my day went
and don’t care about my paychecks
well i don’t want to keep my baby waiting

let me think
what if she
finds a man
who’s got so much
more time for her
than me on
his hands
that don’t make sense
why would she wait so long
just to run away

oh well she’s got everything you’d want
and she lets me pick the restaurants
oh and all my friends adore her
and i can still afford her
she wishes I’d stop worrying
about where my next paycheck is
well I don’t wanna keep my baby waiting

This man's level of sauce is off the charts fam

As a millennial in their early to mid twenties, I cannot express how frustrating it is to know that genuinely great music like this doesn’t get the recognition in mainstream radio and media. If only the younger generations had more exposure to upbeat, wonderful music like this.

[katconlin]

I finally found my brown eyed lover at age 70. Pinchin myself and thankin God.

[seanrodriguez]

Of all places, I was in Ross, waiting while my wife shopped and I heard this over the store speakers. All the years at Ross and this is the best thing I ever walked out the store with.

[jordynelliott]

Anybody filling in the background vocals by themselves? 😂😂 I’m tearing it up! Allen hit me up the next time you’re in the studio I got you, lol!

[SugarshackMusicChannel]

You can never go wrong with a little Allen Stone.

[angryguppy]

This man's forever invited to the block BBQ.

[hunterwilliams]

How do you jump straight into singing that good that fast

[heidia.]

“Oh snap!” My first words as soon as the beat dropped n he started singing

[olacoker]

Does anyone really understand how talented this man is like in all honesty he should have a Grammy award by now ; 2 in fact

[garettap]

Stevie Wonder's voice coming out of my college weed-dealer's body

[ericjones]

This guy is amazing. My wife and I went to Rogers Arkansas to see the goo goo dolls and train and this guy comes out and totally kicks everyone’s ass before the other bands had a chance. Hats off to ya!!

[DrewBourke]

Incredible, soulful voice and a killer song. Modern music doesn't get better than this.

[GunnyRaps]

That bass tho'... The whole thing is smooth as hell. Damn.

[DaVontaeT]

allen stone..took the soul stone from thanos..

[rhalum]

Is it me or Allen sounds better live than in studio?

[gracejuliagiamo]

I love Allen Stone with a burning passion. He is an incredible singer and artist!! So underrated.

[yvetterosales]

I’ve listened to this 50 times today. No lie. 😩💗

[awesomeatitsfinest]

I sometimes feel unsatisfied with other music after listening to allen. This shit is so good, hes always right in the pocket, his tone is butter, songwriting is conscious and uplifting.

If anyone has anything comparable that isnt legit old motown soul and blues then please throw it to me. Allen stone has raised my standards, honestly.

[thejoelchinnery]

For the entire tune, I had the
"something stinks" face. Layers of Funk
