Living on free food tickets

Water in the milk from a hole in the roof

Where the rain came through

What can you do hmm

Tears from your little sister crying

Because she doesn't have a dress without a patch

For the party to go

But you know she'll get by

Cause she's living in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of a 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

It's a good thing you don't have bus fare

It will fall through the hole in your pocket

And you lose it in the snow on the ground

You gotta walk in the town to find a job

Trying to keep your hands warm

When the hole in your shoe

Let the snow come through and chill you to the bone

Somehow you'd better go home where it's warm for you

You can live in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of a 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

Come on

Living on a dream ain't easy

But the closer the knit the tighter the fit

And the chills stay away

Just take 'em in stride for family pride

Ya know that faith is your foundation with

A whole lot of love and a warm conversation

But don't forget forget to pray forget to pray

It's making it strong where you belong

And we're living in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of a 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

Yes we're living in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of a family man

Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can

Living in the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of a family man

Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can

Living in the love of the common people

Smiles really hard on a 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
