83. Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Chile

1 Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
A long ways from home,
A long ways from home.
Then I get down on my knees an' pray,
Get down on my knees an' pray.

2 Sometimes I feel like I’m almos' gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almos' gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almos' gone,
A long ways from home,
A long ways from home.
Then I get down on my knees an' pray,
Get down on my knees an' pray.
