[Verse 1]
G Bb D# Bb
Mama is dyin' and Daddy is gone
G Bb D# F
I'd call the doctor but there's no telephone
G Bb D# Bb
Sister is cryin' and the medicine is gone
Bb D# F
We are the lost ones livin' all alone
G Bb D# Bb
Icebox is empty and the food is all gone
G Bb D# F
This wouldn't be happenin' if my Daddy was home
G Bb D# Bb
No school to-morrow and no love from Mama
Bb D# Bb
We are the lost ones livin' all alone
[Chorus 1]
G F
Come help my mother and don't let her die
G F
I am a big boy and I'm not supposed to cry
G F
Go get my daddy and bring him back home
Bb D# Bb
We are the lost ones livin' all alone
[Verse 2]
G Bb D# Bb
I am not workin' because I am not old enough
G Bb D# F
My sisters are too small and they cannot help us
G Bb D# Bb
We've all tried prayin' but I don't know how to pray
Bb D# F
We are the lost ones seekin' help today
G Bb D# Bb
I'd call the neighbors but I don't even know their names
G Bb D# F
They've lived there ten years oh ain't that a shame
G Bb D# Bb
Don't think they'd help us even if I asked them to
Bb D# Bb
We are the lost ones seekin' help from you
[Chorus 2]
G F
Come help my mother and don't let her die
G F
I am a big boy and I'm not supposed to cry
G F
Come help my mother and bring him back home
Bb D# Bb
We are the lost ones livin' all alone
[Outro]

We are the lost ones livin' all alone (x3)
