Слова и музыка: Cy Coban and Mel Foree

 6 7 -8   8  9   -9 8
As I was slowly passing
-8   7 -5    -5   7  -6 
An orphan's home one day
-6     6      7    8  9  -9 8
And stopped there for a moment
 -8   7  -8   -6   -7  7    -8 
Just to watch the children play

 6 7 -8  8   9   -9  8
Alone a boy was standing
-8    7 -5  -5    7  -6 
And when I asked him why
-6   6     7     8   9     9   -9  -6
He turned with eyes that could not see
 7 -7   6 8  -8  7 
And he began to cry

 6   6 5 -5    6     7  8 9 8 7      -5
I'm nobody's child, I'm no--body's child
 6    -7  7  -8-8  -8   7 -8    8
Just like a flower I'm growing wild
 8  7 -8    8 9    9 -9   7 -6    -5
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
 6 -7   -8   -8   8  -9 -7-8    7
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child

(Остальная часть песни играется с теми же нотами, что и выше)

People come for children 
And take them for their own
But they all seem to pass me 
And I'm left here alone

I know they'd like to take me 
But when they see I am blind
They always take some other child 
And I am left behind

I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower I'm growing wild
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child

No mommy's arms to hold me 
Or soothe me when I cry
Sometimes it gets so lonely 
I wish that I could die

I'd walk the streets of heaven 
Where all the blind can see
And just like all the other kids 
There'd be a home for me

I'm nobody's child, I'm nobody's child
Just like a flower I'm growing wild
No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smile
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child
Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child
