[Intro] You see, the second I came into this world, I felt like I was just born to sing And if you let me in, I'll show you why Them that's got shall have Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says and it still is news [Hook] Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got her own You know I think I like the way that sounds a little but better don't you? Yes the strong get smart While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the grade [Hook] So Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got her own, that's got her own Money, you've got lots of friends Crowding around your door And when you're gone and spending ends They don't come around here no more Rich relations give crusts of bread and such You can help yourself, but don't you, don't you dare take too much [Hook] So your Mama may have, Papa may have But God bless the child that's got her own, that's got her own Yeah Hoo Said God bless (god bless) Said God bless (god bless) Said God bless (god bless) Said God bless Now see God bless this child that's got her own That's got her own
