Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says and it still is news
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
See they're crowding around your door
But when you're gone and spending ends
They won't come to you no more
Rich relations give crusts of bread and such
You can help yourself, just don't take too much
'Cause mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
See they're crowding around your door
But when you're gone and spending ends
They won't come to you no more
So the strong get smart
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
But God bless the child, God bless the child
God bless the child, God bless the child
N'God bless the child that's got his own
God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own
Them that's got shall have Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says and it still is news Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own Money, you've got lots of friends See they're crowding around your door But when you're gone and spending ends They won't come to you no more Rich relations give crusts of bread and such You can help yourself, just don't take too much 'Cause mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own Money, you've got lots of friends See they're crowding around your door But when you're gone and spending ends They won't come to you no more So the strong get smart While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade But God bless the child, God bless the child God bless the child, God bless the child N'God bless the child that's got his own God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own Explain Request ×
