SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE A MOTHERLESS CHILE III

Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile, (3 times)
Far, far away from home,
A long, long ways from home.

Sometimes I feel like I'm almost gone, (3 times)
Far, far away from home,
A long, long ways from home.

Cho.
Then I get down on my knees an' pray,
Get down on my knees and pray.
