two lovely black eyes

Singer:herman's hermits

strolling with me mate down petticoat lane

i fancied this bird

so i asked her her name

pointed to her husband - six foot two

oh

what a surprise

two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

only for telling the man he was wrong

i got two lovely black eyes

strolling with the bird down bethnell green

suddenly find my wife i have seen

oh what a rumpus

oh what a din

she blacked my eyes with the rolling pin

two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

only for telling my wife she was wrong

i got two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

only for telling my wife she was wrong

i got two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

oh what a surprise

only for telling the man he was wrong

i got two lovely black eyes

two lovely black eyes

oh what a surprise

only for telling my wife she was wrong

i got two lovely black eyes

i got two lovely black eyes

la la la.
