bill monroe - jimmy brown the newsboy lyrics

Loading...

i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
everybody knows that i’m the newsboy of the town

you can hear me yelling “morning star”, as i run along the street
i’ve got no hat upon my head, no shoes upon my feet
i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
everybody knows that i’m the newsboy of the town

never mind, sir, how i look, don’t look at me and frown
i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
i’m awful cold and hungry, sir, my clothes are mighty thin
i wander ’bout from place to place, my daily bread to win

i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
everybody knows that i’m the newsboy of the town

my father (-died-) a drunkard, sir, i’ve heard my mother say
and i am helping my mother, sir, as i journey on my way
my mother always tells me, sir, i’ve nothing in the world to lose
i’ll get a place in heaven, sir, selling the “gospel news”

i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
everybody knows that i’m the newsboy of the town
