歌曲歌詞
My father is a drunkard my mother she is dead
And I am just an orphan child no place to lay my head
All through this world I wander
They drive me from their door
Someday I'll find a welcome
On heaven's golden shore
Now if to me you'll listen I'll tell a story sad
How drinking rum and the gambling hell
Have stole away my dad
My mother she is in heaven
Where God and the angels smile
And now I know she's watching
Her lonely orphan child
We were once so happy and had a happy home
Till daddy went to drinking rum
And then he gambled some
He left my darling mother
She died of a broken heart
And as I tell my story
I can see your teardrops start
Don't weep for me and mother
Although I know it is sad
But try to find someone to cheer
And save my poor lonely dad
I'm awful cold and hungry
She closed her eyes and sighed
Then those who heard her story
Knew the orphan child had died
