Songs of the Homeless
Living in the Land of the Common People by Paul Young (Hear it Now)
Living on free food tickets, water in the milk from the hole in the roof, to let the rain come through what can you do Tears from your little sister
Crying because she doesn’t have a
dress without a patch for the party to go But you know she’ll get by Cause she’s living
in the love of the common people
Smiles from 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
And she can It’s a good thing you don’t have busfare
Talented UK performer Paul Young is a real knockabout bloke who wrote a few songs with street cred like "Whereever I lay my Hat(thats my home,Hope in a hopeless world,
In your pocket and you’d lose it
In the snow on the ground
You gotta walk into town to find a job Trying to keep your hands warm
When the hole in your shoe
Let the snow come through
And chill you to the bone
Somehow you’d better go home
Where it’s warm Cause she’s living
in the love of the common people
Smiles from 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
And she can
(Where you can live
in a love of the common people)
But the closer the knit the tighter the fit
And the chills stay away
Just to take ‘em in stride for family pride
You know that faith is your foundation
With a whole lotta love
And a warm conversation
But don’t forget to pray
Just making it strong where you belong
Cause she’s living
in the love of the common people
Smiles from 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
And she can
(We’re living in the love
of the common people)
