Jim Ed Brown - Love of the Common People

Lyrics

Living on free food tickets,

Water in the milk from the hole in the roof

Where the rain came through

What can you do hm.

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 the 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 a bus fare

Or it would fall through the hole in your pocket

And you'd lose it on the snow on the ground

You gotta walk into town to find a job

Trying to keep your hands warm

When the hole in your shoes let the snow come through

And chill you to the bone, so now you better go home where it's warm

Where you can live in the love of the common people

Smiles 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

And she can

Living on dreams ain't easy

But the closer the knit the tighter the knit and the chills stay away

You keep 'em in stride for family pride

You know that faith is your foundation but with a whole lot a love

And a warm conversation and don't forget to pray

Making you strong where you belong

And we live in the love of the common people

Smiles 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

And she can
