<<Mr Brown is a clown who rides to town in a coffin>>
I think story something behind this song goes a bit like this; a duppy was said to speeding thru Jamaica on a three-wheeled coffin with buzzards perching on top, and one of them was asking for a Mr Brown.
In fact, a crowd were searching for the duppy right in front of the Upsetter record shop in Kingston, when Glen Adams came by and instantly wrote the lyrics.
