Them that's got shall have |
|
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 that's got his own, that's got his own |
|
Yes the strong get smart |
|
While the weak ones fade |
|
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade |
|
Mama may have, Papa may have |
|
But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own |
|
Money, you've got lots of friends |
|
They're crowding around your door |
|
But when you're gone and spending ends |
|
They don't come no more |
|
Rich relations give crusts of bread and such |
|
You can help yourself, but don't take too much |
|
Mama may have, Papa may have |
|
But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own |
|
That's got his own |
