Elisabeth Gerle: God Bless the Child
God Bless the Child
Text och musik: Billie Holiday & Arthur Herzog Jr. (Edward B Marks Music Company)
Them thats got shall get Them thats not shall lose So the Bible said and it still is news Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child thats got his own Thats got his own
Yes, the strong gets more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets dont ever make the grade Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child thats got his own Thats got his own
Money, youve got lots of friends Crowding round your door When youre gone, and spending ends They dont count no more Rich relations give Crust of bread and such You can help yourself But dont take too much Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child thats got his own Thats got his own
Mama may have, papa may have But God bless the child thats got his own Thats got his own He just worry bout nothin Cause hes got his own
