The Four Preps - Love Of The Common People lyrics

Livin' on free food tidbits Water in the milk from the hole in the roof Where the rain came through What can you do? Ummhum Tears from little sister Cryin' cause she doesn't have a dress Without a patch, for the party to go Oh, but she knows, she'll get by She is..Livin' 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 Moma's gonna love her just as much as she can She can It's a good thing you don't have bus fare It would fall through the hole in your pocket Then you'd loose it in the snow on the ground A walkin' to town, to find a job Tryin' to keep your hands warm But the hole in your shoe,let the snow Come through and it chills to the bone Boy, you better go home,where it's warm Where you can live in the love of a common people Be the pride and the heart of a family man Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to Moma's gonna love you just as much as she can She can Livin' on dreams ain't easy But the closer the knit,the tighter the fit And the chills stayin' away You take em in your stride,family pride You know that faith is your foundation And with a whole lot of love and a warm Conversation,with plenty of prayers Makin' you strong,where you belong Where you can live in the love of a common people Be the pride and the heart of a family man Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to Moma's gonna love you just as much as she can She can Livin' in the love of a common people Be the pride and the heart....(fade
