Motherless Children - Kelly Joe Phelps

Now motherless children

Have a hard time with mother dead

Motherless children

Have a hard time when mother is dead

They don’t have anywhere to go Walking around from door to door

Motherless children have a hard time

Oh with mother dead

Well father says that he can do After mother gone away

Father says that he can do After mother gone away

Father don’t do so many things

The father don’t know

Just so many things that he doesn’t know

That motherless children have a hard time

After mother gone

Motherless children

Don’t know where to go Mother told a child

Someday I’ll meet you

After we are dead

Mother told a child

Some day I’m gonna meet after we are dead

She told a child

Someday I’ll meet you

Lord, oh Lord I can’t desert you

Motherless children have a hard time

After mother is gone

Motherless children

Have a hard time when she’s gone

Motherless children

Have a hard time when she’s gone

They don’t have anywhere to go They wander from door to door

Motherless children

Motherless children

Motherless children

Have a hard time…
