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? A-hoo-hoo
Tears from your little sister
Crying cause she doesn't have a dress
Without a patch for the party to go
Oh, but she'll know, she'll get by
Because she's living In the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's gonna buy her a dream to cling to
Mamma'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'd fall through the hole in your pocket
And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground
Walking to town... 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
Boy, you better go home where it's warm

Where you can live in the love of the common people
Smiles through the heart of a family man
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
And your Mamma'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 fit
And the chills stay awa-a-ay
You take 'em in stride for family pride
You know that faith is your foundation
And with a whole lot of love and a warm conversation
And of course, it's prayer
Making you strong, where you belong
Where you can live in the love of the common people
Be the pride in the heart of a family man
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
And your Mamma's gonna love you just as much as she can
And she can
Well, yes, you're living in the love of the common people
Pride in the heart of a family man
Living in the love of the common people
Pride in the heart of a family man

Living in the love of the common...
