Henson Cargill - Love Of The Common People Lyrics

Livin' on free food tickets water in the milk from the hole in the roof

Where the rain comes through what can you do uh

Tears from little sister cryin' cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch

For the party to go oh but you know she'll get by

Because she is livin' 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 you just as much as she can and she can



It's a good thing you don't have a busfare

It would fall through the hole in your pocket

And you'd lose it on the snow on the ground a walking to town 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 boy you'd better go home where it's warm

Well you're livin' 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



Livin' on dreams ain't easy

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

You take 'em in stride family pride

You know that faith is your foundation

And with a whole lotta love and a warm conversation of course there's prayer

Makin' you strong where you belong

Well you can live in the love of the common people...

Live in the love of the common people...
