| Nobody's Child lyrics |
| Country Gentlemen |
| I was slowly passing |
| an orphan's home one day, |
| I thought I'd stopped a little while |
| just 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 re-ply |
| I'm nobody's child, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
| I'm like a flowers |
| Just growing wild. |
| No mummy's kisses |
| No daddy's smile. |
| Nobody wants me, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
| Solo(Mandolin) |
| People come for children |
| and take them for their own |
| They all seem to pass me by |
| Why I never know. |
| I know they want to take me, |
| but when they see I'm blind |
| They always picke some other child |
| and I am left behind |
| I'm nobody's child, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
| I'm like a flowers |
| Just growing wild. |
| No mummy's kisses |
| No daddy's smile. |
| Nobody wants me, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
| Solo(Dobro) |
| No mummy's arms to hold me |
| Or soothe me when I cry |
| Sometimes I feel so lonely |
| I wish that I could die |
| I walk the streets of heaven |
| Where all blinds can see |
| Then I'll be like the other kids, |
| There'll* be a place for me. |
| I'm nobody's child, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
| I'm like a flowers |
| Just growing wild. |
| No mummy's kisses |
| No daddy's smile. |
| Nobody wants me, |
| I'm nobody's child. |
