Them that's got shall get
|
Them that's not shall lose
|
So the Bible says
|
And it still is news
|
Your mama may have
|
Your papa may have
|
But God bless the child
|
Who's got his own
|
The strong get more
|
The weak ones fade
|
Empty pockets
|
Well, they 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
|
When you've got money
|
You've got lots of friends
|
They're always hangin'
|
around your door
|
But when the money's all gone
|
And the spending ends
|
They don't come
|
around much anymore
|
Rich relations give
|
A crust of bread and such
|
You can help yourself
|
But you better not
|
take too much, no
|
Mama may have
|
Papa may have
|
But God bless the child
|
Who's got his own
|
Who's got his own
|
<Interlude>
|
Them that's got shall get
|
Them that's not shall lose
|
So the Bible says
|
And it still is news
|
Your mama may have
|
Your papa may have
|
God bless the child
|
That's got his own
|
<Interlude>
|
Them that's got his own
|
