Justin Tubb - Love of the Common People lyrics

rate me

(Ronnie Wilkins - John Hurley)

Livin' on free food tickets

And there's water in the milk from the hole in the roof

Where the rain came through what can you do, hmm

Tears from 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 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 her just as much as she can, and she can.

It's a good thing you don't have a bus fare

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 you'd better go home where it's warm.

For 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.

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 a family pride

You know that faith is your salvation

And with a whole lotta love and a warm conversation and plenty of prayers

A makin' you strong where you belong.

For 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.

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...
