Lyrics

Them that's got shall get, them that's not shall lose So the Bible says and it still is news Mama may have and papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own Yes, the strong get more while the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever seem to make the grade Mama may have, yes, and papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own Tell it like it is, Jill When you've got money, you've got a lot of friends Always hanging round the door When you're money's gone and the spending ends They just don't come around any more Rich relations give, crust of bread and such You can help yourself but don't take too much Mama may have and papa he may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own That's got, that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own That's got his own, that's got his own
