This will be a revamped blog. I decided to start over. It probably won't be as personal as the first one.

Song by SV

I always loved this song. I don't know who sang it originally but the version I know is by Sarah Vaughn. This is what I aspire to...God Bless the Child who has his own.

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
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
