Living on free food tickets |
|
Water in the milk from the hole in the roof |
|
Where the rain came through |
|
What can we do |
|
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 |
|
Out walking your dog 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 |
|
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 a [unverified] 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 |
