K, here's a little sing along
That means sing, what that means, you know?
All of us together as a group
Living on free food tickets
There's water in the milk from the hole in the roof
Where the rain came in
But what can you do? Mm-hm
Well, you got tears from your little sister
Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch
For the party to go
Oh, but you know she's gonna get by
Living 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
As she can
Aw, yeah, now
And it's a good thing you don't have bus fare
It would fall through the whole in your pocket
And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground
You better walk to town and find a job
Oh, and you try to keep your hands warm
The hole in your shoe let the snow come through
And it chills you to the bone (yeah)
Better go home where it's warm
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
As she can
Aw, yeah, now
Living on a dream ain't easy
No, but the closer the knit (knits)
The tighter the fit
And the chills stay away
We like to keep them in stride for family pride
Yeah, faith is your foundation
Got a whole lot of love and a long 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 the family man
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can
Living in the love of (in love that)
The common people (faith is your foundation)
Smiles from the heart of (little bit of)
A family man (love and a long conversation)
Daddy's gonna buy you a (don't)
Dream to cling to (forget to pray it's keeping us)
Mama's gonna love you (strong where we)
Just as much as she can (belong)
Living in the love of (oh)
The common people (living on a dream ain't)
Smiles from the heart of (easy but the closer)
A family man (the knit the tighter the fit)
Daddy's gonna buy you a (we like to)
Dream to cling to (keep them in stride)
Mama's gonna love you (family)
Just as much as she can (pride)
As she can
Thanks y'all
