God Bless The Child

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says
And it still is news

Your mama may have
Your papa may have
But God bless the child
Whos got his own

The strong get more
The weak ones fade
Empty pockets
Well, they dont ever make the grade

Mama may have
Papa may have
But God bless the child
Whos got his own
Whos got his own

When you've got money
You've got lots of friends
They're always hangin' around your door
But when the moneys all gone
And the spending ends
They dont come around much anymore

Rich relations give
A crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But you better not take too much, no

Mama may have
Papa may have
But God bless the child
Whos got his own
Whos got his own

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says
And it still is news

Your mama may have
Your papa may have
But God bless the child
Thats got his own
Them that's got his own
Them that's got his own
