Poor Little One
abanded alone and afraid a little baby cries
staring at the nurse so many other children no attention for him
all he wants is his mom and dad
but all day he is in his crib
poor little one i wished my love i could give
i would hold him tell him it is going to be alright
when he cries i would sing him a bedtime story at night
he has no one only reason the nurse is there is to get paid
he is so confused that he is alone and wanders why
why his mom does not pick him up and comfort him
poor little one from afar my love i give
but that does not help really that much
poor little one needs a touch from a loving mom and dad
for a year poor little one has been sad
tears of sorrow pour from his little eyes
for this to happen inside my heart dies
poor little one needs to be held and burped after each meal
why does this have to happen to me poor little one can see
see that he is all alone and does not have a home
poor little one hold on
i hope you can be adopted before long
