Motherless Children - Lyrics by Sandy Denny


Lyrics

Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone
Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone
Father will do the best he can, he don't always understand
Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone

Mother told me i must obey when mother's gone
Mother told me i must obey when mother's gone
Mother told me i must obey that religion have its way
Mother told me i must obey when mother's gone

Mother told me i must prey when mother's gone
Mother told me i must prey when mother's gone
Mother told me i must prey get my feet in jesus's way
Mother told me i must prey when mother's gone
