Motherless Child

[Verse 1] Every last blind pulled when I walk down the street The only sound I hear is my tired heartbeat Well sometimes I feel just like a motherless child, yeah Motherless child, yeah [Verse 2] This place once had a name. The people once had faces In every town I find it’s the same sad situation Sometimes I feel just like a countryless man, yeah Countryless man, yeah [Chorus] My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise The county correct me from my wild ways [Verse 3] I once saw figures about a mile off So I waited in the woods until they were gone Sometimes I feel just like a wandering dog, yeah Wandering dog, yeah [Chorus] My father tried to break me, my mother she tried to raise The county correct me from my wild ways
