Love of the Common People-Waylon Jennings

Livin' on free food tickets, Water in the milk from the hole in the roof Where the rain came through. What can you do? Tears from little sister Crying cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch For the party to go Oh, but you know shell get by She is living 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 Mama'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. And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground I'll walking to town to find a job. Trying to keep your hands warm But the hole in your shoe let the snow come through And it chills to the bone. Or You'd better go home where its warm Where you can live 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, she can. Living on dreams ain't easy But the closer the knit, the tighter the fit And the chills stay away You take them in stride family pride You know that faith is your foundation And with a whole lotta love and a warm conversation And plenty of prayer(?) Making you strong where you belong Where you can live 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, she can
