As I was slowly passing, an Orphans home one day,
I stopped for just a little while, to watch the children play,
Alone, a boy was standing, and when I asked him why,
He turned, with eyes, that could not see, and he began to cry,
Im nobodys child, Im nobodys child, just like a flower, Im growing wild,
No Mummys kisses, and no Daddys smile, nobody wants me,
Im nobodys child.
No Mothers arms to hold me, or sooth me when I cry,
Sometimes it gets so lonesome here, I wish that I could die,
Id walk the streets of Heaven, where all the blind can see,
And just like all the other kids, Thered be a home for me,
Im nobodys child, Im nobodys child, just like a flower, Im growing wild,
No Mummys kisses, and no Daddys smile, nobody wants me,
Im no-bodys child.
