(Who is Mr. Brown?)
Mr. Brown is a clown
Who rides through town in a coffin
(Where can he be found?)
In the coffin where there is three crows on top
And two is laughing

Oh, what a confusion, ooh, yeah, yeah
What a botheration, ooh, now, now
Who is Mr. Brown? I wanna know now
He is nowhere to be found

From Mandeville to Sligoville
Coffin runnin' around
Upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town
Asking for Mr. Brown
From Mandeville to Sligoville
Coffin runnin' around
Upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town
Asking for Mr. Brown

I wanna know who (Is Mr. Brown?)
Is Mr. Brown controlled by remote?

Oh, calling duppy conqueror
I'm the ghost catcher
This is your chance
Oh, big, big Bill bull-bucka
Take your chance
Prove yourself, oh yeah

Down in parade
People running like a masquerade
The police make a raid
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, think it fade

What a thing in town
Crows, chauffeur-driven around
Skanking as if they had never known
The man they call Mr. Brown
I can tell you where he's from now

From Mandeville to Sligoville
Coffin runnin' around
Upsetting, upsetting, upsetting the town
Asking for Mr. Brown...
