The Drones
Motherless Children
Motherless children have a hard time
No one's going to treat you like your mother will
When your mother is dead
She might be made of gold
But she comes once in your lifetime
And no more

You'll have a hard time

Some people say that your sister will do
When your mother is dead
Some people say that your sister will do
When your mother is dead
Some people say that your sister will do
As soon as she's married she'll turn her back on you

You'll have a hard time

Motherless children have a hard time
No one's going to treat you like your mother will
When your mother is dead
She might be made of gold
But she comes once in your lifetime
Then no more

You'll have a hard time
Well your father's going to do just the best he can
When your mother is dead
Father's going to do just the best he can
When your mother is dead
He's going to do just the best he can
There's so many things your father can't understand

You'll have a hard time
