Motherless Children |
| Well, well, well, ah |
| A motherless children have a hard time |
| Motherless children have a hard time, mother’s dead |
| They’ll not have anywhere to go, wanderin' around from door to door |
| Have a hard time |
| Nobody on earth can take a mother’s place when, when mother is dead, Lord |
| Nobody on earth take mother’s place when, mother’s dead |
| Nobody on earth takes mother’s place |
| When you were startin' paved the way |
| Nobody treats you like mother will when |
| Your wife or husband may be good to you, when mother is dead, Lord |
| They’ll be good to you, mother’s dead |
| A wife or a husband may be good to you |
| But, better than nothing has proved untrue |
| Nobody treats you like mother will when, when mother is dead, Lord |
| Lord, Lord, Lord |
| Yeah, well, ah |
| Well, some people say that sister will do, when mother is dead |
| That sister will do when mother’s dead |
| Some people say that sister will do |
| But, as soon as she’s married, she’ll turn her back on you |
| Nobody treats you like mother will |
