Marty Robbins - Pretty Paper

[@stanbernard1604]

No one can sing this like Roy & put the feelings in it the way he did with that marvelous voice.

Marty was a friend of mine, I spoke with Debbie the day Marty passed away... he never lost his smile and jovial personality right to the end.

Actually Willy (who wrote it) does a wonderful version. Probably better. It's about a disabled guy in Fort Worth, I think, that Willy used to see on the streets (by Leonard's Dept Store) selling pencils and, at Christmas, paper.

Marty, Roy and Willie are 3 of the best and this is one of the best Christmas songs one can enjoy all year round as well.

So Beautiful Amen 🙏

One of the most moving and beautiful Christmas songs ever written and Marty does a great job but, no one does it as well as ole Roy Orbison. His voice is so perfect and sad it makes me cry every time I hear it.

[@adviceandcounsel]

Three of my all-time favorites, three giants (and many others), have recorded this beautiful Christmas song: Willie Nelson (who wrote it), Roy Orbison, and Marty Robbins. Each of their versions is wonderful.

Songlaw Agree also Randy Travis does a great version, However Willie does it best of all

Just wonderful nan listen for hours

Willie Nelson seldom missed a thing. A legless man sitting on a sidewalk, on a board with wheels, selling pencils during the Christmas season. Willie's body may have passed him by, but his brain didn't. The man selling pencils and pretty paper, leaves a strong visualization of himself and had no idea that the whole world, sees him selling that box of pencils along with some pretty paper. Willie helps us see a lot of things, we don't see ourselves. Thanks Willie. Robbins did a great job showing us the legless man also.

We have Bragging Rights about this Young Indian Boy since his Home Town was in Glendale, Arizona and so is mine, I'm Proud to say.

[@charlottehendershot8025]

Love this version too

[@TheeAmericanLad76]

Really?? WHO could dislike this??????

[@marymagee3124]

Roy Orbison was the one for me, Martys is brillant also.

[@lelboy]

Couldn't agree more!

[@maggimae]

Willie wrote the song but Roy Orbison made it a hit!!

[@gadd3690]

No one can sing it like the man who wrote it!!

[@BenjiMordino]

@maggimae Marty does a damn good job though!

[@SongdogWoolley]

love Marty-but no one does this like Willie!!

[@mrbobevans]

I am sure Marty and Willie had the utmost respect for each other.

[@Grizzcanada]

@maggimae Randy Travis made it pretty big also..but I will admit its a toss up between Randy and Roy..for me anyway

[@irenemccann7032]

Like Marty singing this song but I prefer Ricky Van Sheldon singing it best .
