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 Streets,
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'd better hurry,
My, how Time does fly
Yeah, 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 with
“I love you”
Oh,
Pretty Paper,
Pretty Ribbons of blue
