Orphan Child Lyrics

Orphan Child lyrics

A orphan child is always looking for a home
A restless spirit with a
burning desire to roam
Nobody can hold her too long, she's afraid she just
might stay
When the nightbird starts a singing his song, like a gypsy she's
on her
way
Even the wind or the rain can't keep her from running
away
On down that street through a long alley way
And the tears won't
come
Cause there way inside
Somebody say a prayer
For the orphan
child
Just nineteen but she looks much older than that
Pulling tricks
down the avanue and shes working the streets at night
like a cat
And
the men she meets, their all the same
They don't even want to know her
real name
When the morning sun is on the rise
She will sigh and call
it a night
Just another fatherless one
And it nobody turns her
around
She live and die in the streets of this town
And her tears
won't come
Cause there way inside
Somebody say a prayer
For that
orphan child
A orphan child is always looking for a home
She's looking
for a home.
Somebody help that girl
Somebody say a prayer
She
just looking for a home
Just looking for a home...
