Cat. #1051 (MFH #749) - As sung by Ollie Gilbert, Mountain View, Arkansas on March 11, 1970
VERSE 1
Out in th cold world alone
Nothin' but sorrow, I see
Wanderin' about on th streets
Beggin' for something to eat
VERSE 2
Off at night when I kneel
Liftin' my eyes and cry
Askin' my Mother, in Heaven
Look down on her orphan child
VERSE 3
Then, all my grief I forget
When Mother in Heaven I'll see
And I'll be somebodies darlin'
Someone will care for me
VERSE 4
When I was just a small lad
Mamma was taken from home
Now, I have no one to love me
No one to call me their own
VERSE 5
When I leave this ole earth
Get to th Heavenly home
I'll have someone to love me
S omeone to call me their own
