Orphan Train Lyrics - Dry Branch Fire Squad

Once I had a darling mother though I can't recall her name 

I had a baby brother who I'll never see again 

For the Children's Home is sending us out on the Orphan Train 

To try to find someone to take us in 

 

Cho: Take us in, we have rode the Orphan Train 

Take us in, we need a home, we need a name 

Take us in, oh won't you be our kin? 

We are looking for someone to take us in 

 

I have stolen from the poorbox, I have begged the city streets 

I've swabbed the bars and poolrooms for a little bite to eat 

In my daddy's old green jacket and these rags upon my feet 

I've looking for someone to take me in

The Children's Home, they gathered us, me and all the rest 

They us to sit quietly until the food was blessed 

Then they put us on the Orphan Train and sent us way out West 

To try to find someone to take us in 

 

The farmers and the families, they came from miles around 

We lined up on the platform of the station in each town 

And one by one we parted, like some living lost-and-found 

And one by one, we all were taken in

Who started out an orphan sleeping in the freezing rain 

Whose life began out on the Orphan Train.
