God Bless The Child Songtext
von Dee Dee Bridgewater

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
But God bless the child that′s got his own
That's got his own

The strong get more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't make the grade

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
They all come right around your door
But when that money′s gone
And all that spending is
They won't come no more

Rich relations give
A crust of bread and such
Help yourself, but 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

Money, you've got lots of friends
They all come right around your door
But when that money's gone
And all that spending is
They won′t come no more

Rich relations give
A crust of bread and such
Help yourself, but 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
