God Bless The Child
For All The Duke Farmers – and their $1.79 billion endowment

Billie Holiday did it best, but I grew up with the Blood, Sweat and Tears version:
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
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
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
When you got money, you’ve got lots of friends
Crowding round the door
When you’re gone, and all your spending ends
They won’t be round no more
Rich relations may give you
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 who can stand up and say:
I got my own
Crowding round the door
When you’re gone, and all your spending ends
They won’t be round no more
Rich relations may give you
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 who can stand up and say:
I got my own
Mama may have, Papa may have
But God bless the child that’s got his own
That’s got his own
But God bless the child that’s got his own
That’s got his own
