Love Of The Common People

[A]      [A]      [A]     [E]   [D]   [A]   [A]
[A]Living on free food t[A]ickets
There's [A]water in the milk from a [A]hole in the roof
Where the [G]rain came through [G]
What can you [D]do?   [E]
You've got [A]tears from your little si[A]ster
[A]Crying 'cause she doesn't have a [A]dress without a patch
For the [G]party to go [G]
But you [D]know she's gonna get [E]by

[A]Living in the love of the [D]common people
[A]Smiles from the heart of a [E]family man
[A]Daddy's gonna buy you a [D]dream to cling to
[A]Mama's gonna love you just as [E]much as she can
And she [A]can    [A] [same [A]chords[E] as [D]intr[A]o]  [A]

It's a good thing you don't have bus fare
It would fall through the hole in your pocket
And you'd lose it the snow on the ground
You better walk to town and find a job
And you try to keep your hands warm
But the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through
And it chills you to the bone
You better go home, where it's warm

Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a 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 a dream ain't easy (no)
But the closer the knit, the tighter the fit
And the chills stay away
We like to keep them in stride with family pride
Faith is your foundation
A whole lot of love and a warm conversation
But don't forget to pray
It's keeping us strong where we belong

Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can

[A capella ending:]
Living in the love of the common people
    (If love and faith is your foundation)
Smiles from the heart of a family man
    (Little bit of love and a warm conversation)
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
    (Don't forget to pray, it's keeping us strong)
Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can
    (Where we belong)
Living in the love of the common people
    (Ohhh, living on a dream ain't easy)
Smiles from the heart of a family man
    (But the closer the knit the tighter the fit)
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
    (We like to keep 'em in stride)
Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can
    (With family pride)
And she can
    (And she can)
