Motherless Child Songtext
von John Legend

Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel, yeah
Like a motherless child
And sometimes I feel
Like a motherless child
A long, long way
From home

Now sometimes I feel
Like I′m almost gone
Woah-oh, sometimes I feel
Like I'm almost gone
And sometimes I feel, yeah
Like I′m all alone
A long, long way
From home

If you know the words, sing along
Come on, come on


Whose got the shoulder when I need to cry?
I feel restless and I don't know why
I cry for help, but still feel alone
Like a motherless child a long way from home
Lord, I'm lost, I can′t find my way
I′m dealin' with the struggles in my day to day
My soul is weak and I wanna be strong
I try to run away but I′ve been running too long

Come on, come on
Say it again, say it again

Whose got the shoulder when I need to cry?
I feel restless and I don't know why
I cry for help, but still feel alone
Like a motherless child a long way from home
Lord, I′m lost, I can't find my way
I′m dealin' with the struggles in my day to day
My soul is weak and I wanna be strong
I try to run away but I've been running too long

I′ve been running, I′ve been running
Yeah, yeah
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
I've been running too long


Like a motherless child
Like a motherless child
So far away from home
I′m lost and so alone
I'm lost and so alone
Like a motherless child
Yeah
Like a motherless child
Yeah, yeah
