Memphis Slim - Motherless Child Lyrics
Well, I'm a motherless childLord, an I ain't got no friend at allI'm a motherless childWell, an I ain't got no friend at allI smile through my tearsSome people think I'm havin' a ballBut when I had moneyI had friends for miles aroundNow, when I had moneyLord, I had friends for miles aroundBut since I spent all my moneyLord, my friends all put me down(harmonica & piano)But that's alrightI'll take life with a smileThat's alrightPeople, I'll take life with a smileFor now I've gotten kind-a used toWell, a-bein' just a motherless child.~
