lyrics

I'm an original motherless child
I race with the wind and I'm running wild
Don't have a dream, I don't have a goal
I just want to play some rock & roll
Oh, oh, oh, yeah

I was born in a middle-class shack
Hated all the clothes hanging off my back
I was good at school but didn't give a damn
I felt like the world was a garbage can
oh, oh, oh, stick out your can

Motherless child, all alone in the city
Motherless child, well, I ain't too pretty
Motherless child, I don't want your pity,
Let's get it down to the real nitty gritty, yeah, uh huh

My mom left me when I was quite young
Raised by my dad and a nervous nun
At age 14 I had to make a break
But everybody said I was just a snake
hissssss

Motherless child, all alone in the city
Motherless child, well I ain't too pretty
Motherless child, I don't want your pity
Let's get it down to some diddy wah diddy, yeah ... diddy wha

God bless the child that's got his own x4
