Living on free food tickets
Water in the milk from the hole in the roof
Where the rain came through
What can you do?

Tears for the little sister
Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch
For the party to go
But you know she'll get by
Because she is living in the love of [bad word] people
Smile's in the heart of a family man
Daddy's gonna buy her a dream to cling to
Mama's gonna love you just as much as she can, she can

It's a good thing you don't have a bus fare
It would fall through the hole in your pocket
And you'd lose it in the snow on the ground
Walking to town finding job
Tryin' to keep your hands warm
But the hole in your shoe lets the [bad word] through
And it chills you to the bone
Now you’d better go home where it's warm

And you will live in the love of [bad word] people
Smile's in 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, she can

You know that living on a dream ain't easy
But the closer the knit, the tighter the fit
And the chills stay away
For you take them in stride with family pride
You know that faith is in your foundation
With a whole lot of love and a warm conversation
And of course there is pray
Making you strong where you belong
And you will live in the love of [bad word] people
Smile's in 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

Living in the love of [bad word] people
Smiles in 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, she can.
