JIMMY BROWN, THE NEWSBOY - A.P.Carter




1. I sell the morning papers sir my name is Jimmy Brown
   Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town
   You will hear me yelling "Morning Star" as I run along the street
   I have no hat upon my head no shoes upon my feet


2. 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 torn and thin
   I wander 'bout from place to place my daily bread to win


3. My father died a drunkard sir I've heard my mother say
   I am helping mother sir as I journey on my way
   My mother always tells me sir there's nothing in the world to lose
   I'll get a place in heaven sir to sell the Gospel News
