Love Of The Common People Lyrics

Love Of The Common People - Nicky Thomas

Written by:Ronnie Stephen Wilkins/John David Hurley

Livin' on free food tickets

 

Water in your milk from a hole in the roof

Where the rain come through

What can you do uh huh

Tears from your little sister

 

Cryin' because she doesn't have a dress

Without a patch

For the party tonight

 

But she knows she'll get by 'cause she's

Livin' with the love of the common people

Smile 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

 

As she can

 

It's a good thing

You don't have bus fares

It'll fall through

The hole in your pocket

And you'll lose it

On the stone on the ground

Gotta walk into town to find a job

 

Tryin' to keep your hands warm

 

When the hole in your shoe

Let's the snow come through

And it chills you to the bone

So now you'd better go home

Where it's warm and you can leave

Livin' with the love of the common people

Smile from the heart of the family man

Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Mama's gonna love you

As much as she can as she can

 

Livin' on a dream ain't easy

 

But the closer the knit

The tighter the fit

And the chill stay away

 

Keep the man's strive the family pride

You know that faith is your foundation

 

With a whole lotta love

And a warm conversation

But don't forget to turn

 

Just makin' you strong

Where you belong you can leave

Livin' with the love of the common people

Smile 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

 

As she can

 

Livin' with the love of the common people

Smile 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

Livin' with the love of the common people

 

Just as much
