Them that's got shall get
Them that's not shall lose So the Bible says, and it still is new-ews Mama may have and papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own And the strong get more While the weak ones fade Empty pockets don't ever make the gra-ade Mama may have and papa may have But God bless the child that's got his own That's got his own And when you got money You got a-lots of friends All hangin' 'round your door But when the money's gone And all your spendin' ends They won't hang around any more-ore Rich relations may give you A crust of bread and such Sayin' help, go on help 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 his ow...own Mama may have and papa may ha-ave But God bless the child who can stand up and say He's got his... ow-ow-ow-own... |

So we're alone again tonight, I read a book, you watch the fight
A stifled yawn, a can of beer, what an enthralling atmosphere And yet the sight of us this way, helps me to say what I must say It helps me to think a thought or two, to pass it right along to you And just for starters you should know I think You've let yourself go Down through the years each sage repeats, grass never grows on busy streets Which might explain that balding spot, were you a thinker, which you're not And where's that slender youth I knew, I fear he's grown an inch or two Not up and down my joy and pride but more precisely side to side When at a party, now and then, you tell the same old jokes again Or wear a lampshade for a hat, who could be wittier than that With one too many you just might, pick some unnecessary fight Though in the morning with the sun, you can't remember what you've done If there's regret, it doesn't show, you know You've let yourself go You never care the way you dress, you stay unshaven, you look a mess The smallest thing is too much to do, I even hold the door for you And every rose upon the shelf, is one that I've supplied myself It's not the same, I'm well aware, yet I need to see them there I don't know why I say it now, why I don't hold my tongue somehow But I just need to tell it all, no matter where the chips may fall But as I sit and reminisce, there are so many things I miss The reassurance of your touch, the gentle smile that said so much You were my tender, thoughtful beau I couldn't hate you if I tried, and I still want you by my side We oughta lay things on the line, perhaps the fault is really mine And if it is, please tell me so, a seed replanted still can grow Maybe that's all we need to know, come close to me and let yourself go |
