Then that's got shall get, 
Them that's not shall loose, 
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.

Well 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. 

Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowding round your door 
When it's gone and spending ends
They don't come round no more

Rich relations give 
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,
That's got his own.
