LYRICS

them that�s got shall get
them that�s not they shall lose
so the bible said and it still is news
ohhh 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
ohh well, mama may have, and papa may have
but god bless the child that�s got her own
that�s got her own

money, you�ve got lots of friends
crowding through your door
when you�re gone, spending ends
they don�t come no more
rich relations give
crust of bread and such
you can help yourself
but don�t take too much
yes, cuz your papa may have, mmmm mama may have
but god bless the child that�s got his own
that�s got his own

i said...mama may have, and papa may have
but god bless the child that�s got her own
that�s got her own
