ORIGINAL LYRICS

Sometimes I feel, like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel, like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel, like a motherless child.
A long way from home, my home.
A long way from my home

Sometimes I feel, like I'm almost gone,
Sometimes I feel, like I'm almost gone.
Sometimes I feel, like I'm All Alone,
A long way from home, my home
A long way from my home

Sometimes I feel, like my soul is on fire,
Sometimes I feel, like my soul is on fire,
Sometimes I feel, like my soul is on fire,
Far away from home, my home
Far away from my home

Sometimes I wish, I could fly like a bird,
Sometimes I wish, I could fly like a bird,
Sometimes I wish,I could fly like a bird,
A little close to home, my home
A little close to my home

Sometimes I feel, like a motherless Child,
Sometimes I feel, like a motherless child,
Sometimes I feel, like a motherless child,
A long way from home, my home
A long way from my home
