Little Orphan Girl (My Heart Is Your Home)

Last week I was lonely

So I walked down to the park

There I met a little orphan girl

Who was cryin' in the dark

So I said

Come-a, come-a, come-a, come with me

My little orphan gi-irl

Forget the past and the tears you've known

Little orphan girl, my heart is your home

Her clothes were torn and dirty

And she said she had no home

Her mom and dad had passed out

So they left her all alone

And I said

Come-a, come-a, come-a, come with me

My lovely little orphan gi-irl

Forget the past and the tears you've known

Little orphan girl my heart is your home

Little orphan girl

We fell in love but she couldn't stay

Couldn't stay

My ol' folks said that we were too young

Too young to get married

So one night she ran awa-ay

Oh but I'll always love her

And everyday, I say a prayer

That one night I'll pass the park

And I'll find her waitin' there

And I'll say

Come-a, come-a, come-a, come with me

My little orphan girl

Forget the past and the tears you've known

Little orphan girl, my heart is your home
