Motherless Children Lyrics

Motherless Children

Motherless children have a hard timeWhen their mother is goneMotherless children
have a hard timeWhen their mother is goneMotherless children have a very hard
timeAll the weepin', all that cryin'Motherless children have a hard timeWhen
their mother is gone
People say a sister will doWhen the mother is gonePeople say a sister will
doWhen the mother is gonePeople say a sister will doShe'll get married, turn
her back on youMotherless children have a hard timeWhen their mother is gone
Father do the best he canWhen the mother is goneFather do the best he canWhen
the mother is goneFather do the best he canBut there's so many things he just
don't understandMotherless children have a hard timeWhen their mother is gone
I was lookin' for some place to plead my caseAnd I'm standing here all aloneI
was framed, the times they have changeAnd I don't know where I'm
goin'Motherless children have a hard timeAll that weepin', all that
cryin'Motherless children have a hard timeWhen their mother is gone
