Nobody‘s Child

　　nobody's child

　　As I was slowly passing

　　an open 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.

　　I'm nobody's child,

　　I'm nobody's child.

　　Just like the flower

　　I'm growing wild.

　　No mama's arms to hold me,

　　No daddy's smile.

　　Nobody wants me,

　　I'm nobody's child.

　　In every town and village

　　There are places just like this

　　With rows and rows of children

　　Babies in their cribs

　　They've long since stopped their cryin'

　　As no-one ever hears

　　And no-one there to notice them or take away their fears

　　Nobody's child, nobody's child

　　Just like a flower they're growin wild

　　No mama's kisses, and no daddy's smile

　　Nobody wants them they're nobodys child

　　Nobody's child,

　　they're nobody's child.

　　Just like the flower

　　they're growing wild.

　　No mummy's kisses

　　And no daddy's smile.

　　Nobody wants them,

　　they're nobody's child.

　　Nobody wants them,

　　They're nobody's child.
