[Intro] C C F C G x2 [Verse]

C
Living on free food tickets

Water in the milk from a hole in the roof

Bb
Where the rain came through

           F          G
What can you do?

C
Tears from your little sister

Crying 'cause she doesn't have a dress without a patch

Bb
For the party to go

             F              G
But you know she'll get by

[Chorus]

Smile's 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

          C
And she can

C F C G [Verse]

C
It's a good thing you don't have a bus fare

It would fall thru' the hole in your pocket and you'd lose it

Bb
In the snow on the ground

               F                         G
You got to walk into town to find a job

C
Tryin' to keep your hands warm

When the hole in your shoe lets the snow come thru'

Bb
And chills you to the bone

                  F                      G
Now you'd better go home where it's warm

C [Verse]

C
Living on a dream ain't easy

But the closer the knit the tighter the fit

Bb
And the chills stay away

                  F                    G
You take 'em in stride for family pride

C
You know that faith is in your foundation

And with a whole lot of love and a warm conversation

Bb
But don't forget to pray

              F                 G
Making it strong were you belong
