Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
Sometimes I feel like a motherless chile,
A long ways from home.

Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone,
Sometimes I feel like I’m almos’ gone,
A long ways from home.

Parfois je me sens comme un enfant sans sa mère
Loin de chez lui.

Parfois je sens que je suis presque parti
Loin de chez lui.
