[Chorus]
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presents to your darlin' from you
Pretty pencils to write "I love you"
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

[Verse 1]
Crowded street, busy feet hustle by him
Downtown shoppers Christmas is nigh
There he sits all alone on the sidewalk
Hopin' that you won't pass him by

[Verse 2]
Should you stop? Better not, much too busy
You're in a hurry, oh, how time does fly
In the distance, the ringing of laughter
In the midst of the laughter, he cries

[Chorus]
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
Wrap your presеnts to your darlin' from you
Pretty pencils to write "I lovе you"
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue

[Outro]
Pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue
