James Weldon Johnson
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
A long way from home

I wish I could fly like a bird in the sky
I sometimes wish I could fly like a bird in the sky
I wish I could fly like a bird in the sky
A long way from home

Motherless children have a hard time
Motherless children have a hard time
Motherless children have a hard time
A long way from home

Sometimes I feel like a motherless child…
