Stevie Wonder
God Bless the Child
[Intro]
Mmm-hmm, mmm-hmmm, oh yeah

[Verse 1]
Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says and it still is news

[Chorus]
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, yeah
That's got his own
Oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade, no, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, yeah
That's got his own
Oh yeah

[Bridge]
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding 'round your door, oh yeah
But when you're gone and spending ends
Oh, they don't come around anymore, oh yeah
[Verse 3]
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But please don't take too much, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, yeah
That's got his own

[Harmonica solo]

[Verse 3 repeated]
Oh, rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But oh don't take too much, no, no, no

[Chorus]
Mama may have, papa may have
God bless the child that's got his own, hoo
That's got his own, oh, hmm
That's got his own, yeah, hmm

[Outro]
I've got my own, hmm
That's got his own
