I sell the morning papers sir my name is Jimmy Brown
|
Everybody knows that I am the best newsboy in town
|
You could hear me yelling Morning Star runnin' along the street
|
I've got no hat upon my head no shoes upon my feet
|
|
Never mind sir how I look don't look at me and frown
|
I sell the morning papers sir my name is Jimmy Brown
|

|
I'm awful cold and hungry sir my clothes are mighty thin
|
I wander about from place to place my daily bread to win
|
My father died a drunkard sir I've heard my mother say
|
And I am helping mother sir as I journey on my way
|
My mother always tells me sir well don't you feel so blue
|
You'll get a place in heaven son to sell the Gospel News
|

|
I sell the morning papers sir...
