Nobody's Child
As I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
- As I was slowly passing an orphan's home one day
- And stopped there for a moment just to watch the children play
- Alone a boy was standing and when I asked him why
- He turned with eyes that could not see
- And he began to cry
- I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child
- Just like a flower I'm growing wild
- No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
- Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
- People come for children and take them for their own
- But they all seem to pass me and
- I'm left here all alone
- I know they'd like to take me
- But when they see I'm blind
- They always take some other child and
- I am left behind
- I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child
- Just like a flower I'm growing wild
- No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
- Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
- No mommy's arms to hold me or soothe me when I cry
- Sometimes it gets so lonely I wish that I could die
- I'd walk the streets of heaven where all the blind can see
- And just like all the other kids
- There'd be a home for me
- I'm nobody's child I'm nobody's child
- Just like a flower I'm growing wild
- No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
- Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
- Nobody wants me I'm nobody's child
