Lyrics God Bless The Child - Steve Miller

God Bless The Child

Them thats got shall get
Them thats 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
Whos got his own
The strong get more
The weak ones fade
Empty pockets
Well, they dont ever make the grade
Mama may have
Papa may have
But God bless the child
Whos got his own
Whos got his own
When youve got money
Youve got lots of friends
Theyre always hangin around your door
But when the moneys all gone
And the spending ends
They dont 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
Whos got his own
Whos got his own
Them thats got shall get
Them thats 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
Thats got his own
Them thats got his own
Them thats got his own
