Aretha Franklin - God Bless The Child Lyrics
Them that's God shall get
Them that's not shall lose
So the Bible says
And it still is news
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own
Yeah, the strong gets more
While the weak ones fade
Empty pockets don't
Ever make the grade
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own
Money, you've got lots of friends
Crowdin' round the door
When it's gone and
Spendin' ends
Rich realations give
A crust of bread and such
You can help yourself
But don't take too much
Momma may have
Poppa may have
But God bless the child
That's got his own
That's got his own

Aretha Franklin God Bless The Child Comments
Aretha supported her mother a lot, economics, also, one day, Aretha had no money, and had to ask her mother, this time, for some money, her mother didn't want, and tell her daughter "god bless the children that have their own"

Her style so fits the song. I think she channeled the spirit of Billie on this.

Deus abençõe a voz prodigiosa de Aretha mas a orquestra é muito pálida.
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
Wow, wow... Aretha's rendition is the most fervent and clearest of them all, I'll play this at my funeral if have one.
Billie Holiday first made this song, but Aretha nailed the vocals and made it better. Thank you for all that you have done. God bless your soul. You will forever be in our thoughts, prayers, and hearts. We love you.

Aretha Franklin June 21st 1979, song in Wednesday 17th May 2017.
lo mejor
Musicalidade. Deveria ser básico pra qualquer que se intitule "cantor".
" Conta-se que, a origem dessa musica foi baseada na história de Billie: a cantora realizou um grande sonho de sua mãe,dando-lhe um restaurante. Na primeira crise financeira,Billie recorrendo a mãe,pedindo lhe auxílio,e acabou como resposta uma frase da canção: " You can help yourself " ; but don't take too much ".Arrasada ,deprimida, Billie em parceria com Herzog,na quela mesma noite,nasceu o grande sucesso "God bless the Child ".,Lindamente,interpretada na vós da diva A. Franklin .....
Emocionante.. maravilhosa.
Después de una semana pesada, escuchar su voz es simplemente reconfortante.
Que voz...
verdadeira lenda do soul
she's just the best !!
EXCELENTE...!
OMG you are awesome
the queen of music, please please come to Mexico
I need to hear you sing once in mi life.
