The Carter Family - Jimmie Brown, the Newsboy lyrics

[Chorus] I sell the morning paper Sir, my name is Jimmy Brown Most everybody knows I am the newsboy of the town [Verse 1] You can hear me yelling "Morning Star" Walking on the street Got no hat upon my head No shoes upon my feet [Chorus] [Verse 2] I'm very cold and hungry Sir, my clothes are worn and thin I wander about from place to place My daily bread I win Don't never mind Sir, how I look, don't swear at me or frown I sell the morning paper Sir, my name is Jimmy Brown My Father died a drunkard Sir, I've heard my Mother say I am helping Mother Sir, as I journey on my way [Chorus] [Verse 3] My Mother always tells me Sir, I've nothing in the world to lose I'll get a place in Heaven Sir, to sell the Gospel News [Chorus]
