[Verse 1]
A
Living on free food tickets
Water in the milk
From a hole in the roof
G
Where the rain came through
D
What can you do?
E
Mmm
A
Tears from your little sister
Crying because
She doesn't have a dress
G
Without a patch for the party to go
D E
But you know she'll get by
[Chorus]
A
Cause she's living
D
In the love of the common people
A E
Smiles from the heart of a family man
(Ah, ah, yeah)
A D
Daddy's gonna buy you a dream to cling to
A
Mama's gonna love you
E
Just as much as she can (So cold)
A
And she can
[Verse 2]
A
It's a good thing you don't have bus fare
(It's a good thing, ouch)
It would fall through the hole in your pocket
G
And you'd lose it
