Someone asked for an old Hank Snow song, "Nobody's Child." 
 Although Hank recorded it, the original was Harry Hibbs. Here it is. 
  
 Nobody's Child 
  
    D                    D7    G           
 As I was slowly passing by an orphan's home one day, 
   A7                                                         D
 I thought I'd stop a little while just to watch the children play. 
                  D7            G
 Alone, a boy was standing, and when I asked him why, 
    A7                                                      D
 He turned with eyes that could not see and this was his re- ply. 
     G               A7       D
 I'm nobody's child, nobody's child. 
 A7                              D
 I'm like a flower, just growing wild. 
            D7            G
 No mommy's kisses and no daddy's smiles, 
        A7                     D
 Nobody wants me, I'm nobody's child.  
  
 People come for children to take them for their own, 
 But they seem to pass me by and why I never know. 
 I know they want to take me, but when they see I'm Blind, 
 They always pick some other child and I am left behind. 
  
 Repeat Chorus>>> 
  
 No mommy's arms to hold me and soothe me when I cry, 
 Sometimes I feel so lonely, I wish that I could die. 
 I'll walk the street of heaven where all the blind can see, 
 Then I'll be like other kids, There'll be a place for me. 
  
 Repeat Chorus>>>
