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 |
|
Hoping that you won't pass him by |
|
Should you stop?, better not, much too busy |
|
You're in a hurry, my how time does fly |
|
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 |
