Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless childÂ

 A Long Way From HomeÂ
True Believer
 A Long Way From Home Â
: Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless child
Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless child Â
 Sometimes I wish I could fly,
Like a bird up in the skyÂ
Sometimes I wish I could fly,
Like a bird in the sky
Little closer to home
 Motherless children
Have a real hard timeÂ
Motherless children
Have a such a real hard time
So long so long so long
 Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless childÂ
Sometimes I feel
Like a motherless child
So far away
 Sometimes I feel
Like freedom is nearÂ
Sometimes I feel
Like freedom is near
But we're so far away
 Sometimes I feel
Like it's close at handÂ
Sometimes I feel
Like the freedom is near
But we're so far from home
 Sometimes, sometimes, |
Sometimes
 So far, so far, so far,Â
So far Mama from you, so far
