shaul markovitch - willie, a motherless child lyrics

Loading...

o blind willie johnson, a motherless child
you were just four when your poor mother died
you tried every door couldn’t find any grace
n0body on earth can take mother’s place

o blind willie johnson, a motherless child
you were just seven when you went blind
you couldn’t then tell how near or how far
your only relief (was) your cigar+box guitar

o blind willie johnson, a motherless child
your voice tears the wall down, singing outside
you’re sliding your finger across the guitar
awaiting the sound of a coin in the jar

o blind williе johnson, a motherless child
you searchеd for the soul of a man not his mind
n0body could tell you, the fault wasn’t yours
you looked for the answers that n0body knows

o blind willie johnson, a motherless child
your heart’s full of sorrow, your eyes never dried
in the time of your sickness (found) no help from your god
you went to the king (with) no one on your bond

o blind willie johnson, a motherless child
the night is so dark, so cold is the ground
your music now floats away by the stars
your light is still burning wherever you are
