Nobody's Child Lyrics - Traveling Wilburys

As I was slowly passing 

An orphan's home today 

I stopped for just a little while 

To watch the children play 

Alone a boy was standing 

And when I asked him why 

He turned with eyes that could not see 

And he began to cry 

I'm nobody's child 

I'm nobody's child 

Just like a flower 

I'm growing wild 

No momma's arms to hold me 

No daddy's smiles 

Nobody wants me 

I'm nobody's child

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

In every town and village 

There are places just like this 

With rows and rows of children 

Babies in their cribs 

They've long since stopped their crying 

As no one ever hears 

And no one's there to notice them 

Or take away the fears 

Nobody's child 

Nobody's child 

Just like a flower 

They're growing wild 

Got no mommy's kisses 

And no daddy's smiles 

Nobody wants them 

They're nobody's child

Nobody's child 

They're nobody's child 

Just like a flower 

They're growing wild 

No mommy's kisses 

And no daddy's smiles 

Nobody wants them 

They're nobody's child 

Nobody wants them 

They're nobody's child
