God Bless The Child
Arthur Herzog, Jr. / Billie Holiday
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 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 and Papa he may have, but God bless the child who's got his own,
who's got his own.
Money, money, money, you've got lots of friends crowdin' round and crowdin'
round your door.When you're gone and spend it ends,
They don't come around no more.
Rich relations give, crusts of bread and such.You can help yourself,but don't
take
too much.
Mama may have and Papa may have, but God bless the child who's got his own,
who's got his own.
