(x3) Them that's got shall get Them that's not shall lose So the Bible said    and it still is news       Mama may have    Papa may have But God bless the child  That's got his own                Yes the strong just gets more While the weak ones fade away Empty pockets won't    ever make the grade       Mama may have    Papa may have But God bless the child  That's got his own                    When you've got money you've got lots of friends Just crowding round the door But when it's goneand the spending ends They don't come round no  more      Rich relations bring you 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
