Текст песни Motherless Children Have A Hard Time - Blind Willie McTell

Motherless children have a hard time, mother's dead, mother's dead Lord
Motherless children have a hard time when mother's dead
They'll not have no place to go, wanderin' around from door to door
Nobody treat you like mother will, when Mother's dead Lord

Some people say that sister will do, but when mother is dead Lord
Some people say that sister will do, but when mother is dead Lord
Some people say that sister will do, soon as she's married, she turn her back on you
Nobody treats you like mother will when, your mother is dead Lord

Father will do the best he can, when mother is dead Lord
Father will do the best he can, when mother is dead
Father will do the best he can, so many things father don't understand
Nobody treats you like mother will when...

Motherless children have to wonder around when mother is dead
Motherless children have to wonder around when mother is dead
Motherless children have to wonder around so many friends that really turned them down
Nobody treats you like mother will and mother is dead now

Motherless children see the hard time, mother's dead now
Motherless children see the hard time when mother's dead
They don't have nowhere to go, wanderin' around from door to door
Nobody treats you like mother will when your mother is dead, Lord
