C                 G7 
Out on the corner standin' so bold 
                                       C 
Stood a little paper boy so hungry and cold 
                      G7 
And as the crowd came passin' by 
                                      C 
These words he said with tears in his eyes 

              G7 
'Please buy a paper from me 
                             C 
So I can get me somethin' to eat 
                          G7 
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet' 
                                        C 
Said the little paper boy, there on the street 

                       G7 
'Out in this cold wide world all alone 
                                      C 
I have no place on this earth to call home 
                              G7 
I haven't had the chance that other kids had 
                             C 
I have no mother, nor even a dad 

                G7 
So please buy a paper from me 
                             C 
So I can get me somethin' to eat 
                          G7 
My clothes are ragged, no shoes on my feet ' 
                                        C 
Said the little paper boy, there on the street 

                          G7 
Early next mornin' as the crowd passed by 
                                          C 
The little boy was gone and they wondered why 
                           G7 
They started searchin' and then found him dead 
                                  C 
He died with the papers under his head 

                     G7 
No one was there his body to claim 
                                  C 
There he was lying but he felt no pain 
                      G7 
Now he has gone up to Heaven we know 
                                     C 
The little paper boy who died in the snow
