God Bless the Child

Mama may have, Papa may have
But God blessed the child that's got his own

Them that's got, shall have
Them that's not, shall lose
So, the Bible said and it still is news

Mama may have (mama may have), Papa may have (papa may have)
But God blessed the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade

Mama may have, Papa may have
But God blessed the child that's got his own
That's got his own

Money, you've got lots of friends crowding round the door
When you're gone and spending ends, they don't come no more
Rich relations give crust of bread and such
You can help yourself but don't take too much

Mama may have (mama may have), Papa may have (papa may have)
But God blessed the child that's got his own
That's got his own
God blessed the child, the child that's got his own
