Does any one know the text or the name of the lullaby that Dr. Bailey sings for her baby in 3x08?
Thank you =)

God Bless the Child
Billie Holiday
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

Being self sufficient and strong, taking only what you need and not being greedy. It's definitely a Depression-era song. I sang it in college many years ago.

originally sung by Billie Holiday.. Soo many memories when singing it in the fifth grade... its cuz of that song that i started listening to jazz and Bilie holiday in particular.. Oh man, best song!!!
