[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 one’s fade
Empty pockets don't ever make the grade
Your Mama may have, and your Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own

[Bridge]
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
But when you're gone and spending ends
They don't come no more

[Verse 3]
Rich rеlations give crusts of bread and such
You can help yoursеlf
But don't you dare to take too much
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
