Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
|
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
|
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
|
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
|
|
Crowded street, busy feet hustle by him
|
Downtown shoppers, Christmas is nigh
|
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
|
He's just hoping he won't pass him by
|
|
Should I stop? Better not, much too busy
|
I'm in a hurry, my how time does fly
|
And in the distance the ringing of laughter
|
And in the midst of the laughter he cries
|
|
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
|
Wrap your presents to your darling from you
|
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
|
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
|
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
