Motherless Child Songtext
von Over the Rhine

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long ways from 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
But I′m a long way from home

Sometimes I feel like a change is gonna come
Sometimes I feel like a change oh, oh, like a change
Oh sometimes I feel, oh like a change is gonna come
But we're a long way from home
