God Bless the Child (Remastered) - Anita O'Day translation in German

God Bless the Child (Remastered)

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
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

Yes, 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 the door
When you're gone, spending ends
They don't come no more
Rich relations give
Crust 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

Mama may have, papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
He just worry 'bout nothin'
Cause he's got his own

Gott segne das Kind (Remastered)

Die, die haben, sollen bekommen
Die, die nichts haben, sollen verlieren
So sprach die Bibel, und es gilt noch heut'
Mama mag was haben, Papa mag was haben
Doch Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hat
Das sein Eigenes hat

Ja, die Starken kriegen mehr
Während die Schwachen untergehn
Leere Taschen bringen's nicht weit
Mama mag was haben, Papa mag was haben
Doch Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hat
Das sein Eigenes hat

Geld, damit hast du viele Freunde
Die sich drängen um deine Tür
Ist das Geld aus, ist Schluss mit Spendieren
Kommen sie nicht mehr
Reiche Verwandte geben
Brotkrusten und Ähnliches
Du kannst dir selber helfen
Aber nimm dir ja nicht zu viel
Mama mag was haben, Papa mag was haben
Doch Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hat
Das sein Eigenes hat

Mama mag was haben, Papa mag was haben
Doch Gott segne das Kind, das sein Eigenes hat
Das sein Eigenes hat
Er sorgt sich einfach um nichts
Denn er hat ja sein Eigenes
