To the Bridge Lyrics - David Bowie

1 I sell the morning paper, sir, my name is Jimmy Brown

2 Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town

3 You can hear me yelling, "Morning Star", as I run along the street

4 I've got no hat upon my head, no shoes upon my feet

5 I sell the morning paper, sir, my name is Jimmy brown

6 Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town

7 Never mind, sir, how I look, don't look at me and frown

8 I sell the morning paper, sir, my name is Jimmy Brown

9 I'm awful cold and hungry, sir, my clothes are mighty thin

10 I wander 'bout from place to place, my daily bread to win

11 I sell the morning paper, sir, my name is Jimmy Brown

12 Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town

13 My father was a drunkard, sir, I've heard my mother say

14 And I am helping my mother, sir, as I journey on my way

15 My mother always tells me, sir, I've nothing in the world to do

16 I'll get a place in Heaven, sir, selling the gospel news

17 I sell the morning paper, sir, my name is Jimmy Brown

18 Everybody knows that I'm the newsboy of the town
