Blood Sweat And Tears God Bless The Child Lyrics

God Bless The Child Lyrics

Them that's got, shall get

Them that's not, shall lose

So the Bible said, 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 seem to get more

While the weak ones fade

Empty pockets don't

Ever make the grade

As mama may have

And papa may have

God bless' the child

That's got his own

That's got his own.



And when you got money,

You got a lots of friends

Crowdin' 'round your door

When the money's gone

And all you're spendin' ends

They won't be 'round any more

No, no, no more



And rich relations

May give you

A crust of bread and such

You can help yourself

But don't take too much

Mama may have

And your papa may have

But God bless' the child

That's got his own

That's got his own

God bless' the child who can stand up and say



I've got my own

Ev'ry child's, got to have his own!
