Pretty Paper lyrics

(Written By: Willie Nelson)


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

He's just hoping he won't pass him by
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk



[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/chris_isaak/pretty_paper.html ]
Should I stop? Better not, much too busy

I'm in a hurry, my how time does fly

And 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

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
