God Bless the Child

God bless the child, the child that's got his own Them that's got shall get Them that's not you lose So the bible says and it still is news Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child that got it's own God bless the child that got it's 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 bless the child that got it's own God bless the child that got it's own When you've got money You've got lots of friends Crowding round the door When it's gone spending ends They don't come no more Which relations give, crust of bread and such You can help yourself but don't take too much Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child that got it's own God bless the child that got it's own
