God Bless The Child Lyrics - Beautiful South

(B. Holiday / A. Herzog) 

Those that's got shall get 

Those that's not shall lose 

So the bible said and it still is true 

Mama may have 

Papa may have 

But God bless the child that's got his own 

That's got his own 

Well the strong seem to get 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 that's got his own 

That's got his own

And when you got money 

You got lots of friends 

Crawling round your door 

When the money's gone 

And all your spending ends 

They won't be around no more 

Rich relations may give you 

A crust of bread and such 

You can help yourself but don't take too much 

'Cos Mama may have 

Papa may have 

But God bless the child that's got his own 

That's got his own 

When you got money 

You got lots of friends 

Crawling round your door 

When the money's gone 

And all your spending ends 

They won't be around no more

Rich relations may give you 

A crust 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 who can turn round and say 

I've got my own
