As I was slowly passing an orphan's home today
I stopped for just a little while to watch children play
Alone a boy was standing
and when I asked him why
He turned to me with big brown eyes and he began to cry
I'm nobody's child,
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers,
I'm growing wild
No mama's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child
In every town and village there's places
just like this
With rows and rows of children and babies
in their cribs
They've long since stopped their crying
As no one ever hears And there's no one there to notice them
Or take away their fears I'm nobody's child,
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers,
I'm growing wild
No mama's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers,
I'm growing wild
No mama's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
I'm nobody's child
Just like the flowers,
I'm growing wild
No mama's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child
Nobody wants me,
I'm nobody's child
Nobody
wants me,
I'm
nobody's child
