Them that's got shall get  Them that's not shall lose  So the Bible says and it still is news cuz  Mama may have and papa may have  But God bless the child that's got his own  That's got his own    Yes the strong gets more  While the weak ones fade  Empty pockets don't ever make the grade cuz  Mama may have and papa may have  But God bless the child that's got his own  That's got his own    Oh yeah money, money you've got lots of friends  Hanging round your door  When you're gone and spending ends  We don't come round no more    Rich relations give  Crust of bread and such  You can help yourself   But don't take too much cuz  Mama may have and papa may have  But God bless the child that's got his own  That's got his own
