[Verse 1]
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
That's got his own

[Verse 2]
Yes, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

[Bridge]
Well, money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding around your door
But when its gone and spending ends
Don't you know, they don't come no more

[Verse 3]
Rich relations givе
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't you darе take too much
Cause Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
[Outro]
That's got his own
