Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child
Traditional African American Spiritual
Collected by John Rosamond Johnson & James Weldon Johnson
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…
