Love of the Common People

Living on free food tickets
Water in the milk from the hole in the roof
Where the rain came through
What can we do

Oh
Tears from your little sister
Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress
Without a patch for the party to go

Oh but you know she'll get by
'Cause she's living 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 her just
As much as she can and she can
It's a good thing you

Don't have bus fare
It would fall through
The hole in your pocket
And you'll lose it in the

Snow on the ground
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
Oh, you better go home where it's warm
You can live 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 her just

As much as she can and she can

Living on dreams ain't easy
But the closer the knit
The tighter the fit
And the chills stay away
You can take them in stride
For family pride
You know that faith in your foundation
And with a whole lot of love
And a warm conversation
And of course there's prayer
Making you strong
Where you belong
Where you can live 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 her just
As much as she can and she can
'Cause she's living
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 her just
As much as she can
Living in
The love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of the family man
