I'm travellin' down life's sorrowful pathway
Searching for a place to stay
Nobody seems to care about me
Since Mom and Dad have passed away

I'm a stranger here in this world of sorrow
Travelin' through this world alone
I have no promise of tommorrow
No place on earth to call my home

Nobody knows the life I'm livin'
All the troubles I've gone though
I'm just a poor and helpless atranger
In this old world my friends are few

* Refrain

My journey here will soon be ended
No more in sadness will stray
I'll meet my dear old Dad and Mother
In that lovely land so far away

* Refrain
