God Bless the Child

Them that's got shall get Them that's not shall lose So the Bible said and it still is news Mama may have, papa may have God bless the child that's got his own So the strong get more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't seem to make the grade Mama may have, papa may have God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own You've got money, you've got lots of friends Hanging all around the door When it's all gone, and the spending ends No they don't come around no more Rich relations bring Crusts of bread and such You can help yourself Just don't take too much Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own Rich relations bring Crusts of bread and such You can help yourself Just don't take too much, no Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child that can stand up and say I've got my own
