I lived a life but nothing I've gained
   Each day I'm full of sorrow and pain
   No one seems enough for poor me
   To give me a word of sympathy
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will the end be
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will become of poor me
   No father to guide, no mother to care
   Must bear my troubles all alone
   Not even a brother to help me share
   This burden I must bear alone
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will the end be
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will become of poor me
   I'm sittin' and thinkin' of the days gone by
   They fills my heart with pain
   I'm too weak to stand and too strong to lie
   But I'm forgettin' it all in vain
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will the end be
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will become of poor me
   I've travelled and wandered almost everywhere
   To get a little joy from life
   Still I've gained but worries and despair
   Still struggling in this world of strife
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will the end be
   Oh me, oh my
   Wonder what will become of poor me
