เพลง Love of the Common People

Song: Love of the Common People

Artist: Elton John

Lyrics: John Hurley & Ronnie Wilkins

Composer: Elton John

Living on free food tickets

Water in the milk from the hole in the roof

Where the rain came through

What can we do

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'll get by

Because she's living

In the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of the family man

Daddy's going to buy her a dream to cling to

Mama's going to love her just as much as she can and she can

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

It would fall through the hole in your pocket

And you'll lose it in the snow on the ground

Out walking your dog 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 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 going to buy her a dream to cling to

Mama's going to love her just as much as she can and she can

Living on dreams ain't easy

But the closer the knit the tighter the fit

And the chills stay away

You can take them in stride, for family pride

You know that faith in your foundation

And with a whole lot of love and a warm conversation

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 going to buy her a dream to cling to

Mama's going to love her just as much as she can and she can

In the love of the common people

Smiles from the heart of the family man

Daddy's going to buy her a dream to cling to

Mama's going to love her just as much as she can and she can
