(Capo on 5th to play along)
FDown to the agent's Cshop I'd go
I'd Fshoulder my Cbag down the GIrvine Road
Past the Fcouncil houses Crow on Grow
WhenC I was a Fpaper Gboy
With the FDaily Record and the CPeople's Friend
I'd go Fdown to the Csunny sGide again
FUnder the bridge where the Crailway Gbends
WhenF I was a Gpaper Cboy
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
