Lyrics and translation Mikalah Gordon - God Bless the Child

God Bless the Child

Them that's got shall have
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says 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 get smart
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
They're crowding around your door
But when you're gone and spending ends
They don't come around no more
Rich relations give crusts 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

Money you've got lots of friends
Crowding around your door
When you're gone and spending ends
They don't come around no more
Rich relations, they give crusts of bread and such
You can help yourself, but don't take too much off
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that's got his own, that's got his own

Here just don't worry about nothing cause he's got his own.

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 d'actualité
Maman peut avoir, Papa peut avoir
Mais Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien, qui a le sien

Oui, les forts deviennent intelligents
Alors que les faibles s'effacent
Les poches vides ne font jamais la grade
Maman peut avoir, Papa peut avoir
Mais Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien, qui a le sien

L'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
Ils se pressent à ta porte
Mais quand tu es parti et que les dépenses prennent fin
Ils ne reviennent plus
Les riches parents donnent des croûtes de pain et autres
Tu peux t'aider toi-même, mais ne prends pas trop
Maman peut avoir, Papa peut avoir
Mais Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien, qui a le sien

L'argent, tu as beaucoup d'amis
Se pressant à ta porte
Quand tu es parti et que les dépenses prennent fin
Ils ne reviennent plus
Les riches parents, ils donnent des croûtes de pain et autres
Tu peux t'aider toi-même, mais ne prends pas trop
Maman peut avoir, Papa peut avoir
Mais Dieu bénisse l'enfant qui a le sien, qui a le sien

Ici, ne t'inquiète de rien, car il a le sien.
