Pretty Paper

Emmy Rossum

Compositor: 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 buying
Downtown shoppers, christmas’s night
There he sits all alone on the side-walk
Hoping 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 a midst of the laughter he climbs

Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents ‘to your darling, from you’
Pretty ṗencils to write ‘i love you’
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

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
