Motherless Children lyrics

Motherless children have a hard time

When their mother`s dead.

Motherless children have a hard time

When their mother`s dead.

See them wander from door to door,

Lord, they don`t got no place to go.

Nobody love you like your mother can

When your mother`s dead.



Father will do the best he can

When your mother`s dead.

Father will do the best he can

When your mother`s dead.

Father will do the best he can

But some things, your father can`t understand.

Nobody loves you like your mother can

When your mother`s dead.



When your mother`s dead

When your mother`s dead, Lord

Nobody loves you like your mother can

When your mother`s dead.



When your mother`s dead.

When your mother`s dead, Lord

Nobody loves you like your mother can

When your mother`s dead.



Sister will do the best she can

When your mother`s dead

Sister will do the best she can

But she`ll go and leave you for another man

Nobody loves you like a mother can

When your mother`s dead.



When your mother`s dead

When your mother`s dead

Nobody loves you like a mother can

When your mother`s dead





When you mother`s dead

When your mother`s dead

Nobody wants you

Nobody needs you

Nobody loves you like a mother can

When your mother`s dead
