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
God bless 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
And Papa may have
God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own
Money
You got lots of friends
Crowding 'round your door
When money's gone
And all the spending ends
They don't come
'round no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have
And Papa may have
God bless the child
That's got his own
Money
You got lots of friends
Crowding 'round your door
When money's gone
And all the spending ends
They don't come
'round no more
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't you take too much
Mama may have
And Papa may have
God bless the child
I said God bless the child
God bless the child
Who can stand up and say
I've got my own yeah
