Sitting on her own at the church door
Got no home, got no family
She's an orphan, orphan
She needs someone to help her
She's an orphan
Ooooh oooh

Reverend Jones was on his way to church that day
Saw her whipping at the church door
Asked her what was wrong
She said I'm an orphan
I'm an orphan, I'm hungry

I'm an orphan, I'm hungry
Orphan all I need is a piece bread
Oh! All I need is piece of bread
Orphan, hungry
Yeah yeah yeah

Reverend Jones took her home to his family
Asking mama Jones to prepare some food for the young girl
They knelt down and said
Saying Lord she's now our child
Lord she's no more an orphan
She's no more, no more an orphan and a hungry girl

Reverend Jones took her home
And mama Jones prepared her food
Reverend Jones and mama Jones, and mama Jones
Prepared some food for the young girl
Oh mama Jones prepared some food

They praised the Lord and said
She now has a family
No more an orphan, no more an orphan
She's got Reverend Jones and mama Jones
Oh she's got Reverend Jones and mama Jones
Mama Jones, mama Jones

Reverend Jones took her home (Reverend Jones took her home)
And Mama Jones prepared her food (Mama Jones mama Jones)
She was an orphan (She was an orphan)
She was hungry
But Reverend Jones (Reverend Jones)
Reverend Jones (Reverend Jones)
Reverend Jones (Reverend Jones)

Reverend Jones (Reverend Jones)
Took her home (Took her home ohhh)
And mama Jones prepared her food
(And mama Jones prepared her food)
Reverend Jones
Oh and mama Jones prepared some food for the young girl
Oh mama Jones prepared her food
