Lời bài hát: Sandy Denny. Motherless Children.

Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone
Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone
Father will do the best he can, he don't always understand
Motherless children have a hard time when mother's gone

Mother told me I must obey when mother's gone
Mother told me I must obey when mother's gone
Mother told me I must obey that religion have it's way
Mother told me I must obey when mother's gone


Mother told me I must prey when mother's gone
Mother told me I must prey when mother's gone
Mother told me I must prey get my feet in jesus's way
Mother told me I must prey when mother's gone
