Paper Boy by David Francey
Paper Boy
(Capo on 5th to play along)
C G
Down to the agent's shop I'd go
C G D
I'd shoulder my bag down the Irvine Road
C G D
Past the council houses row on row
G C D
When I was a paper boy
C G
With the Daily Record and the People's Friend
C G D
I'd go down to the sunny side again
C G D
Under the bridge where the railway bends
C D G
When I was a paper boy
And my feet flew in the morning light
Racing the dawn as the sky grew bright
And everything in the world was right
When I was a paper boy
I'd walk the morning and the empty streets
Would ring to the sound of my own two feet
And I'd walk in step to my own heartbeat
When I was a paper boy
As the rain rolled down the back of my neck
I'd deliver the news of death and sex
Rhodesia, Speck and Malcolm X
When I was a paper boy
There's a crow in a treetop way up high
Hung as a warning left to die
And a moaning wind in the morning sky
When I was a paper boy
