Verse 1:

(Who, ooh, ooh, ooh, is Mr. Brown?)

Mr Brown is a clown who rides to town in a coffin.

(Where he be found?) In the coffin,

Where there is three crows on top and two is laughing.

Oh, what a con-fusion! Ooh, yeah, yeah!

What a bother-ation, ooh, now, now!

Who is Mr. Brown? I wanna know now!

He is nowhere to be found.

Verse 2:

From Mandeville to Slide-a-ville, coffin runnin' a-round,

Up-setting, upsetting, up-setting the town, asking for Mr. Brown.

From Mandeville to Slide-a-ville, coffin runnin' a-round,

Up-setting, upsetting, up-setting 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!

Verse 3:

Down in pa-rade,

People runnin' like a masquerade.

The po-lice make a raid,

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they think it fade.

What a thing in town,

Crows chauffeur-driven a-round.

Skankin' as if they had never known,

The man they call "Mr. Brown".

I can tell you where he's from now...

Coda:

From Mandeville to Slide-a-ville, coffin runnin' a-round,

Up-setting, upsetting, up-setting the town, asking for Mr. Brown.
