smokey river boys – jimmy brown the newsboy lyrics
[1] i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy
brown
most everybody knows…. i am the newsboy of the town
you’ll hear me yelling “morning star”, as i run along
the street
i have no hat upon my head, no shoes upon my feet
i have no hat upon my head…no shoes upon my feet
[2] i’m awful cold and hungry, sir, my clothes are torn
& thin
i wander ’bout from place to place, my daily bread to
win
never mind, sir, how i look, don’t look at me and frown
i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
[cho] i sell the morning paper
sir, my name is jimmy brown
instrumental channel
[3] my father died a drunkard, sir, i’ve heard my
mother say
and i am helping mother, sir, as i journey on my way
mother always tells me, sir, i’ve nothing in this world
to lose
i’ll get a place in heaven, sir, to sell the “gospel
news”
so, never mind, sir, how i look, don’t look at me and
frown
i sell the morning paper, sir, my name is jimmy brown
[cho] i sell the morning paper
sir, my name is jimmy brown
(jimmy brown, jimmy brown, jimmy brown)
