(Negro spiritual 1870г.) Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Long way from my home
Sometimes I wish I could fly Like a bird up in the sky Sometimes I wish I could fly Like a bird up in the sky Sometimes I wish I could fly Like a bird up in the sky Little closer to my home
Motherless children have a real hard time Motherless children have-a real hard time Motherless children have such a real hard time A long way from home
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Sometimes I feel like a motherless child Long way from my home
Sometimes I feel like freedom is near Oh, sometimes I feel like freedom is here Sometimes I feel like freedom is near But we’re so far from home
Sometimes I feel like it’s close at hand And sometimes I feel like it’s close at hand Sometimes I feel like the freedom is so near But we’re so far away from home
Motherless children have a real hard time Motherless children have-a real a hard time Motherless children have a really hard time Sometimes, sometimes, sometimes, sometimes, sometimes So far, so far, so far, so far, so far, so far, so far Mama, from you So far
Motherless children have a real hard time Motherless children have-a real hard time Motherless children have a real hard time So far from home
