Sometimes I feel like a motherless child… [3x]
A long way from home,
A long way from my home,
Believe me, believe me, believe me,
Believe me, believe me, believe me,
A long way from my home.
Sometimes I feel like my hopes are in vain (oh yeah),
Sometimes I feel like my hopes are in vain (baby),
Sometimes I feel like my hopes are in vain.
No way to get home (no no),
No way to get home,
Believe me, believe me, believe me,
Believe me, believe me, believe me,
No way to get home.
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child (oh baby),
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child (won't someone help me now),
Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone.
A long way from home,
A long way from my home,
Believe me, believe me, believe me, believe me,
Believe me, believe me, believe me, believe me,
A long way from my home.
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child… [3x]
A long way from home,
A long way from my home,
Believe me, believe me, believe me, believe me,
Believe me, believe me, believe me, believe me,
A long way from my home.
