Pretty Paper


  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
