THEM THAT'S GOT SHALL GET
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
WHO'S GOT HIS OWN
WHO'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
PAPA MAY HAVE
BUT GOD BLESS THE CHILD
WHO'S GOT HIS OWN
WHO'S GOT HIS OWN
MONEY
YOU'VE GOT LOTS OF FRIENDS
HANGIN' 'ROUND YOUR DOOR
THEN IT'S GONE
AND THE MONEY ENDS
THEY DON'T COME
ALONG NO MORE
RICH RELATIONS GIVE
CRUST OF BREAD AND SUCH
YOU CAN HELP YOURSELF, BABY
OH, DON'T YOU TAKE TOO MUCH
MAMA MAY HAVE
PAPA MAY HAVE
BUT GOD BLESS THE CHILD
WHO'S GOT HIS OWN...
MONEY, YEAH
YOU'VE GOT LOTS OF FRIENDS
HANGIN' 'ROUND YOUR DOOR

RICH RELATIONS GIVE
CRUST OF BREAD AND SUCH
YOU CAN HELP YOURSELF, BABY
OH, DON'T YOU TAKE TOO MUCH
MAMA MAY HAVE
PAPA MAY HAVE
BUT GOD BLESS THE CHILD
WHO'S GOT... HIS... OWN...
