Bob Dylan Motherless Children


Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother's
dead
Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother is
dead
Motherless children run a hard road
A hard road. a hard road
Motherless children run a hard road when your mother is
dead

Your Father will do the best he can when your mother is
dead
Your Father will do the best he can when your mother is
dead
Your Father will do the best he can
But he jus' does not understand
Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother is
dead


An' some people say, "Your sister might do when
your mother's dead."
An' some people say, "Your sister might do when
your mother is dead."
Some people say "Your sister will do"
Soon as she marries, turn yer back on you.
Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother is
dead


You can dig my grave with a bloody spade when I'm dead
You can dig my grave with a bloody spade when I'm dead
You can dig my grave with a bloody spade
See that my digger gets well paid
Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother is
dead

Jesus won't be no mother to you when your mother is
dead
Jesus won't be no mother to you when your mother is
dead
Jesus won't be no mother to you
His trials and tribulations won't see you through
Motherless children run a hard road when yer mother is
dead
