Love of the common people-John Denver

Living on free food tickets
Watering the milk from the hole in the roof
Where the rain came through
What can we do?
Tears from your baby sister crying
Cause she doesn't have a dress
Without a patch for the party to go
Ah, but you know she'll get by because she's

Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's going to buy you a dream to cling to
Mommy's gonna love you 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'd lose it in the snow on the ground
Walkin' to town to find a job

Tryin' to keep your hands warm
But the hole in your shoe lets the snow come through
And it chills to the bone
Boy you better go home where it's warm

And you can live in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy's goin' to love you as much as she can
And she can

Livin' 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 faith is your foundation
With a whole lot of love and a warm conversation
And many a prayer
Making you strong, where you belong

Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy's goin' to love you just as much as she can
Yeah

Living in the love of the common people
Smiles from the heart of a family man
Daddy's goin' to buy you a dream to cling to
Mummy's goin' to love you just as much as she can
Yeah

Great!! This is actually one of my favorite albums by John Denver. I also love his version of "Circus" from this album...catches the mood I was in for much of my life....

[DragonLowriders]

@dwmzmm would you like me to upload that song?

[melaniemckown]

great



[tremsfan]

@TheLouise24 The Everly Brothers and Wayne Newton each had very good versions of this, both from 1967. The Everly version is better, and is on youtube.....

I had this album while flying in Viet Nam in '69 and '70......Basically gave it away....wish I had it now

John Denver was a true Human Being and boy could he entertain us!

[TheLouise24]

This is a great version, but the best one is from the Gosdin Brothers; Vern's baritone voice is beautiful.

[Gramatan3000]

Tempo too slow.

[dwmzmm]

@DragonLowriders - yes, go ahead and upload "Circus." Would appreciate it.

[forestchild23]

I think this is the best version of this song ever. He just feels every word as he sings it, incredible!
