Two Little Orphans Songtext

Two Little Orphans Songtext
Two little orphans a boy and a girl
Sat by an old church door
The little girls feet were as brown as the curl
That fell on the dress that she wore
The boy′s clothes were all tattered and torn
That tear shone beneath little eyes
Why don't you go home to your momma I said
And this was the maidens reply
Our momma is in heaven they took her away
And left Jim and I all alone
We came here to stay ′til the close of the day
For we have no mama no home
We can't earn our bread
We're too little she said
Jame′s 5 years and I am only 7
No one can′t love us our papa is dead
And our darling mama is in heaven
She said she would come for her darlings someday
Perhaps she's coming tonight
Maybe tonight there′s no her there she said
Two Little ones to keep
Than placing her arm under little Jim's head
She kissed him and fall her to sleep
The sexton came early to ring the church bell
And found them covered the snow white
The angels made room for the children to dwell
With mama heaven with their mommy that night
The angels made room for the children to dwell
With mama heaven with their mommy that night
Sat by an old church door
The little girls feet were as brown as the curl
That fell on the dress that she wore
The boy′s clothes were all tattered and torn
That tear shone beneath little eyes
Why don't you go home to your momma I said
And this was the maidens reply
Our momma is in heaven they took her away
And left Jim and I all alone
We came here to stay ′til the close of the day
For we have no mama no home
We can't earn our bread
We're too little she said
Jame′s 5 years and I am only 7
No one can′t love us our papa is dead
And our darling mama is in heaven
She said she would come for her darlings someday
Perhaps she's coming tonight
Maybe tonight there′s no her there she said
Two Little ones to keep
Than placing her arm under little Jim's head
She kissed him and fall her to sleep
The sexton came early to ring the church bell
And found them covered the snow white
The angels made room for the children to dwell
With mama heaven with their mommy that night
The angels made room for the children to dwell
With mama heaven with their mommy that night
