God Bless The Child

Gott segne das Kind

God Bless The Child

Die, die haben, werden habenThem that's got shall have
Die, die nichts haben, verlierenThem that's not shall lose
So steht es in der Bibel und es ist immer noch neuSo the Bible said and it still is news
Mama mag haben, Papa mag habenMama may have, Papa may have
Aber Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hatBut God bless the child that's got his own
Das sein Eigenes hatThat's got his own

Ja, die Starken bekommen mehrYes, the strong gets more
Während die Schwachen verblassenWhile the weak ones fade
Leere Taschen bringen nie den ErfolgEmpty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama mag haben, Papa mag habenMama may have, Papa may have
Aber Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hatBut God bless the child that's got his own
Das sein Eigenes hatThat's got his own

Geld, du hast viele FreundeMoney, you've got lots of friends
Die sich um die Tür drängenCrowding round the door
Wenn du weg bist, endet das AusgebenWhen you're gone, spending ends
Dann kommen sie nicht mehrThey don't come no more
Reiche Verwandte gebenRich relations give
Ein Stück Brot und soCrust of bread and such
Du kannst dir selbst helfenYou can help yourself
Aber nimm nicht zu vielBut don't take too much
Mama mag haben, Papa mag habenMama may have, Papa may have
Aber Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hatBut God bless the child that's got his own
Das sein Eigenes hatThat's got his own

Mama mag haben, Papa mag habenMama may have, Papa may have
Aber Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hatBut God bless the child that's got his own
Das sein Eigenes hatThat's got his own
Er macht sich um nichts SorgenHe just worry 'bout nothin'
Denn er hat sein EigenesCause he's got his own
Ja, er hat sein EigenesYes he's got his own
