Motherless Children — текст песни (Lucinda Williams)

Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead
Wanderin` round from door to door
They don`t have no place to go
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Some people say your sister will do when your mother`s dead
Some people say your sister will do when your mother`s dead
Some people say your sister will do
Soon as she marries, turn her back on you
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Some people say your auntie will do when your mother`s dead
Some people say your auntie will do when your mother`s dead
Some people say your auntie will do
Make a start, then prove untrue
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Your husband may do the best he can when your mother`s dead
Your husband may do the best he can when your mother`s dead
Your husband may do the best he can
but your husband don`t understand
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Jesus will be a father to you when your mother`s dead
Jesus will be a father to you when your mother`s dead
Jesus will be a father to you
Pain and sorrow he`ll lead you through
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead
Wanderin` round from door to door
They don`t have no place to go
Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead

Motherless children have a hard time when their mother`s dead
