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
