Daniel O'Donnell - Two Little Orphans
Two little orphans, a boy and a girl
Sat by an old church door
The little girls feet were as brown as the curls
That fell on the dress that she wore
The boy's coat was faded an hatless his head
And tears shone in each little eye
Why Don't you go home to your mama I said
this was the maiden's reply
Mama's in Heaven, They took her away
and left Jim and I all alone
We came here to stay till the close of the day
for we have no mama no more.
We can't earn our bread, we're too little, she said
Jim's five Years and I'm only seven
No one to love us since Papa is dead
And our darling Mama's in heaven
Papa was lost on the sea long ago
We waited all night on the shore
For he was a lifesaving captain you know
But he never came back anymore.
Then momma got sick angles took her away
they said to a home fair and bright
She said she'd come back for her darlings one day
perhaps she's comming tonight.
Maby tonight there's no room there for us
two little ones to keep
then placing her arm under little Jims head
she kissed him and both fell asleep
The sexton came early to ring the church bell
And found them all covered snow white
The angels made room for two children to dwell
In heaven with Mommie that night
