Nobody`s Child Lyrics

Nobody`s Child lyrics

As I was slowly passing 

 An orphans´ home one day 

 I stopped for just a little while 

 To watch the children play 

  

 Alone, a boy was standing 

 And when I asked him why 

 He turned with eyes that could not see 

 And he began to cry 

  

 I´m nobody´s child 

 I´m nobody´s child 

 Just like the flowers 

 I´m growing wild 

  

 I got no mammy´s kisses 

 I got no, no daddy´s smile 

 Nobody wants me 

 I´m nobody´s child 

  

 No mammy´s arms to hold me 

 Or soothe me when I cry 

 But sometimes I feel so lonesome 

 I wish that I could die 

  

 I walk the streets of heaven 

 Where all the blind can see 

 And just like all the other kids 

 There´ll be room for me 

  

 I´m nobody´s child 

 I´m nobody´s child 

 Just like the flowers 

 I´m, I´m growing wild 

  

 I got no mammy´s kisses 

 I got no, no daddy´s smile 

 Nobody wants me 

 I´m nobody´s child
