Verse 1
You've heard of that foxy old Brownie,
Who sent his whole fam'ly away?
Well you can just bet that I envied old Brown,
When I heard him shouting hooray!
I borrowed some money from Brownie,
Induced by old lady to pack,
It's now been a month and I can't raise the price
To pay for her fare coming back.
Chorus
Oh, where is my wife tonight?
Oh, why did she leave my sight?
I'm sorry to say, I shouted hooray!
Oh why did I ever let her go away?
She never would leave the town
If it hadn't have been for Brown,
Bring back, bring back,
Bring back my wifey to me.
Verse 2
I've tried ev'ry way to raise money,
But none of my friends are in town
Excepting the one man that started this thing.
So I called around to see Brown.
He answered, "I'm sorry, old fellow,
I'll have to refuse you this time,
I have just enough money left in the bank
So send for that fam'ly of mine."
Chorus
Oh, where is my wife tonight?
Oh, why did she leave my sight?
I'm sorry to say, I shouted hooray!
Oh why did I ever let her go away?
She never would leave the town
If it hadn't have been for Brown,
Bring back, bring back,
Bring back my wifey to me.
