God Bless The Child
REBECCA FERGUSON · Lady Sings The Blues 2015 · Track 11 of 17
Music: Arthur Herzog, Jr. · Lyrics: Billie Holiday
Them that's got shall have Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says 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
Money, you've got lots of friends They're crowding around your door But when you're gone and spending ends They won't come to you no more
Rich relations give crusts of bread and such You can help yourself, just don't 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
Money, you've got lots of friends They're crowding around your door But when you're gone and spending ends They won't come to you no more
So the strong get smart While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade But God bless the child, God bless the child God bless the child, God bless the child...
