Artist/Band: Stiff Little Fingers
Lyrics for Song: Love of the Common People
Lyrics for Album: Story So Far [2007]



Living on Government hand-outs

Water in the milk from a hole in the roof

Where the rain comes through

What can you do? You can't move



You got tears from your little sister

Crying 'cause she don't have a dress

Without a patch in for the party to go

Aw, but you know she'll get by 'cause she's



Living in the love of the common people

Smiles through the heart of the family man

Poppa's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Momma's gonna love you just

As much as she can and she can



It's a good think you don't have bus fares

They would fall through a hold in you pocket

And you'd lose 'em in the snow on the ground

You gotta walk into town to get a job



Trying to keep yourself warm

But the hole in your shoe lets the snow comes through

And chills you to the bone

So you better go home where it's warm and you can



Living in the love of the common people

Smiles through the heart of the family man

Poppa's gonna buy you a dream to cling to

Momma's gonna love you just

As much as she can and she can



Living on dreams ain't easy
