Love Of The Common People lyrics

Livin` on free food tickets water in the milk from the hole in the roof

Where the rain comes through what can you do uh

Tears from little sister cryin` cause she doesn`t have a dress without a patch

For the party to go oh but you know she`ll get by

Because she is livin` in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of the family man

Daddy`s gonna buy her a dream to cling to

Mama`s gonna love you just as much as she can and she can



It`s a good thing you don`t have a busfare

It would fall through the hole in your pocket

And you`d lose it on the snow on the ground a walking to town to find a job

Trying to keep your hands warm

But the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through

And it chills you to the bone boy you`d better go home where it`s warm

Well you`re livin` in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of the family man

Daddy`s gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Mama`s gonna love you just as much as she can and she can



Livin` on dreams ain`t easy

But the closer the knit the tighter the fit and the chills stay away

You take `em in stride family pride

You know that faith is your foundation

And with a whole lotta love and a warm conversation of course there`s prayer

Makin` you strong where you belong

Well you can live in the love of the common people...

Live in the love of the common people...
