Mother's Children Have A Hard Time Lyrics
Mother's Children Have A Hard Time (母亲的孩子遭罪了) - Blind Willie Johnson
Well well well ah
Hey motherless children have a hard time
Motherless children have a hard time mother's dead
They'll not have anywhere to go
Wandering around from door to door
Have a hard time
Nobody on earth can take a mother's place when
When mother is dead Lord
Nobody on earth takes mother's place when mother's dead
Nobody on earth takes mother's place
When you were starting paved the way
Nobody treats you like mother will when
Your wife or husband may be good to you
When mother is dead Lord
They'll be good to you mother's dead
A wife or a husband may be good to you
But better than nothing has proved untrue
Nobody treats you like mother will when
When mother is dead Lord
Lord Lord Lord yeah well ah
Well some people say that sister will do
When mother is dead
That sister will do when mother's dead
Some people say that sister will do
But as soon as she's married she turn her back on you
Nobody treats you like mother will
And father will do the best he can
When mother is dead Lord
Well the best he can when mother is dead
Father will do the best he can
So many things a father can't understand
Nobody treats you like mother will
Hey motherless children have a hard time
When mother is dead Lord
Motherless children have a hard time mother's dead
They'll not have anywhere to go
Wandering around from door to door
Have a hard time
