Lyrics and translation George Benson - God Bless the Child

God Bless the Child

Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says and it still is news
Mama may have and papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
Yes, the strong get more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't ever seem make the grade
Mama may have, yes, and papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
When you've got money, you've got lots of friends
Always hanging round the door
When your money's gone, and the spending ends
They just don't come around anymore
Rich relations give
Crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Mama may have and papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own
That's got his own
That's got... (that's got his own)
That's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own
That's got his own

Que Dieu bénisse l'enfant

Ceux qui ont auront
Ceux qui n'ont pas perdront
C'est ce que dit la Bible et c'est toujours une nouvelle
Maman peut avoir et papa peut avoir
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Oui, les forts ont plus
Alors que les faibles s'éteignent
Les poches vides ne semblent jamais réussir
Maman peut avoir, oui, et papa peut avoir
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Quand tu as de l'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
Toujours à traîner autour de la porte
Quand ton argent est parti et que les dépenses cessent
Ils ne reviennent tout simplement plus
Les relations riches donnent
Une croûte de pain et autres
Tu peux t'aider toi-même
Mais ne prends pas trop
Maman peut avoir et papa peut avoir
Mais que Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a... (qui a le sien)
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
Qui a le sien
