Everyday my heart is sore Seeing that I'm so poor But I shall not give up so easy There's a reward for me, there's a reward for me Though I'm bordered down with shame There's no one for me to blame But I shall not give up so easy There's a reward for me, there's a reward for me Sometimes I feel like a motherless child You know no one cares for me I've never known sympathy Sometimes I look to this world with a smile Man you hear what I say
