Lyrics
Motherless Child
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child, sometimes I feel like a
motherless child. Sometimes I feel like a motherless child, and
I'm alone, and I'm a long way from my home.
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone, sometimes I feel like I'm
almost gone. Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone. and I'm
alone, and I'm alone and I'm a long way from my home, from my
home.
Sometimes I feel like there's nobody there, sometimes I feel
like there's no no nobody there sometimes I feel like there's
nobody there, and I'm alone and alone and I'm really a long way
from my home. From my home, from my home, from my home, from my
home, from my home, from my home, from my home.
