"Motherfather" lyrics

Could you help me, mother, father?
Could you do this thing for me?
I'm alone, nobody bothers
No one's looking out for me
Could you help me, mother, father?
Cause my time is running out
And there's nothing here for no one
Here my heart to hand me down
My heart to hand me down

Could you help me, mother, father?
I'm not asking for the truth
I don't need that whole damn package
Just a little more of you
Could you help me, darling sister?
When I'm stuck and all alone
I don't want to be nobody's mister
It's the loneliest of homes

Oh brother, I need you so
Stuck in this world all alone
I can not get out on my own
No I need you, brother
I need you so
I need you so
I miss my family, I miss my home

Can you help me out, my brother?
Could you do this thing for me?
Cause I'm stuck down in the cutter
And there ain't no friend I see
Would you help me, mother, father?
I've became so wisdom proof
Land me a hand, you know you oughta
I'm crying out to you

My brother, I need you so
Stuck in this world all alone
I can not get out on my own
No I need you, brother
I need you so
Stuck in this world all alone
I can not get out on my own
No I need you, brother
I need you so
I need you so
I miss my family, I miss my home

Did you help me out, my brother?
When I'm cold out on the ground
I'm no stranger to the gutter
And I'm a friend to down and out
