Jimmy Brown

[Male Speaking Voice]: Hello, Bill. It was awfully nice to get your tape, and we're trying to reciprocate. Couple 'a tapeworms, so to speak. Well, here we are, sitting around the dinner table, but only Joanie, and Joan, and myself. Mimi's at camp, and Pauline is... elsewhere, we'll tell you more about her later. We have quite a bit of interesting news, for you, but before we do that, I think I'll let you listen to Joanie. Here's Joanie

[Joan]:

I sell the morning papers sir

My name is Jimmy Brown

Everybody knows that I'm a newsboy of the town

You will hear me yelling morning star

As I run along the street

I have no hat upon my head

No shoes upon my feet

Never mind sir how I look

Don't look at me and frown

I sell the morning papers sir

My name is Jimmy Brown

I'm awful cold and hungry sir

My clothes are torn and thin

I wander 'bout from place to place

My daily bread to win

My father died a drunkard sir

I've heard my mother say

I'm helping mother sir

As I journey on my way

My mother always tells me sir

There's nothing in the world to lose

I'll get a place in heaven sir

To sell the gospel news
