As I was slowly passing an orphans home one day
I stopped for just a litle 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 a flower, I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses, and no daddy's smile
Nobody want's me, I'm nobody's child

No mother's arms to hold me, or sooth me when I cry
Sometimes it gets so lonesome here, I wish that I could die
I'd walk the streets of heaven, where all the blind can see
And just like all the other kids, there'd be a home for me

I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower, I'm growing wild
No mummy's kisses, and no daddy's smile
Nobody want's me, I'm nobody's child
