Everyday my heart is sore
 Seeing that I'm so poor
 But I shall not give up so easy oooh
 Cause there's a reward for me
 There's a reward for me...

 Though I'm bordered down with shame
 There's no one for me to blame
 But I shall not give up so easy
 Cause there's a reward for me, oooh yeah 
 There's a reward for me.

 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 You know no one cares for me
 I've never known sympathy
 Sometimes I look to the world with a smile
 Man you hear what I say... 

 Everyday my heart is sore
 Seeing that I'm so poor
 But I shall not give up so easy 
 Oh no no no no non no
 Cause there's a reward for me... 
 Cause there's a reward for me.

 Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
 You know no one cares for me
 I've never known sympathy
 Sometimes I look to the world with a smile
 Man you hear what I say... 

 Everyday my heart is sore
 Seeing that I'm so poor
 But I shall not give up so easy 
 Oh no no no no non no
 Cause there's a reward for me 
 Cause there's a reward for me
