Lyrics

Just a kid named Joe
What his second name is, I don’t know
He sells the daily papers
So I buy all my papers from a kid named Joe

Let it rain or snow
He will greet you with a bright “Hello”
“Hello, Mister, here’s your papers”
So I buy all my papers from a kid named Joe

He keeps hustlin’ away, hustlin’ all day
There’s work to be done and no time to play
“Extra! Extra! Read the latest news”
There’s a smile on his face that’s a cure for the blues

Just a kid named Joe
Makes this world a better place, I know
And he sells the daily papers
So I buy all my papers from a kid named Joe

(I’m a kid named Joe)
(What my second name is, I really don’t know)
(I just sell the daily papers)
And I buy all my papers from this kid named Joe

(Let it rain or let it snow)
(I will greet you with a bright “Hello”)
(“Hello, Mister, here’s your papers”)
And so I buy all my papers from this kid named Joe

(Just a kid named Joe)
You make this world a better place, I know
(I just sell the daily papers)
And I buy all of my papers from this kid named Joe
