Jimmie Brown, The Newsboy Lyrics - Earl Scruggs

I sell the morning papers sir, my name is Jimmy Brown 

Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town 

You can hear me yellin', Morning Star, runnin' along the street 

Got no hat upon my head, no shoes upon my feet 

Never mind sir how I look, don't look at me and frown 

Sell the morning papers sir, my name is Jimmy Brown 

I'm awful cold and hungry sir my clothes is mighty thin 

Wander 'bout from place to place, my daily bread to win 

My father died a drunkard sir, I've heard my mother say 

I am helpin' 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 to sell the Gospel News 

I sell the morning papers sir
