Lyrics and translation Billie Holiday - God Bless the Child - Take 1
God Bless the Child - Take 1
Que Dieu bénisse l'enfant - Prise 1
Them
that's
got
shall
get
Ceux
qui
ont,
recevront
Them
that's
not
shall
lose
Ceux
qui
n'ont
rien,
perdront
So
the
Bible
says
and
it
still
is
news
C'est
ce
que
dit
la
Bible
et
c'est
toujours
une
nouvelle
Mama
may
have,
Papa
may
have
Maman
peut
avoir,
Papa
peut
avoir
But
God
bless
the
child
that's
got
his
own,
that's
got
his
own
Mais
que
Dieu
bénisse
l'enfant
qui
a
le
sien,
qui
a
le
sien
Yes
the
strong
get
smart
Oui,
les
forts
deviennent
intelligents
While
the
weak
ones
fade
Alors
que
les
faibles
s'effacent
Empty
pockets
don't
ever
make
the
grade
Les
poches
vides
ne
réussissent
jamais
Mama
may
have,
Papa
may
have
Maman
peut
avoir,
Papa
peut
avoir
But
God
bless
the
child
that's
got
his
own,
that's
got
his
own
Mais
que
Dieu
bénisse
l'enfant
qui
a
le
sien,
qui
a
le
sien
Money,
you've
got
lots
of
friends
L'argent,
tu
as
beaucoup
d'amis
They're
crowding
around
your
door
Ils
se
pressent
à
ta
porte
But
when
you're
gone
and
spending
ends
Mais
quand
tu
es
parti
et
que
les
dépenses
cessent
They
don't
come
no
more
Ils
ne
reviennent
plus
Rich
relations
give
crusts
of
bread
and
such
Les
riches
parents
donnent
des
croûtes
de
pain
et
autres
You
can
help
yourself,
but
don't
take
too
much
Tu
peux
t'aider
toi-même,
mais
n'en
prends
pas
trop
Mama
may
have,
Papa
may
have
Maman
peut
avoir,
Papa
peut
avoir
But
God
bless
the
child
that's
got
his
own,
that's
got
his
own
Mais
que
Dieu
bénisse
l'enfant
qui
a
le
sien,
qui
a
le
sien
