People Like Us Songtext
Daddy wasn't much of a talkin' Man
Taught me everything with his callused hands
Drinkin' beer, working on the ceiling fan
Kid, tuck away your money in a coffee can

Mama never wanted a diamond ring
Hell, she never asked for anything
Maybe just a hug and to hear me sing
And all us kids round the table at the dinner bell ring
Yeah, it don't take much
For down-home people like us
We'll be singin' on Sunday
Workin' on Monday
Friday night fillin' that cup
We don't care about the Joneses
The only thing we wanna own us
A little piece of land and a handshake you can trust
Yeah, people like us

Well, the woman I love she treats me fine
She gave me two babies that are growing like vines
I take her by the hand and it makes her smile
And the whole world just spins right for a while

Yeah, it don't take much
For down-home people like us
We'll be singin' on Sunday
Workin' on Monday
Friday night fillin' that cup
We don't care about the Joneses
The only thing we wanna own us
A little piece of land and a handshake you can trust
Yeah, people like us

No, it don't take a lot
When all ya need is what you got

Yeah, it don't take much
For down-home people like us
We'll be singin' on Sunday
Workin' on Monday
Friday night fillin' that cup
We don't care about the Joneses
The only thing we wanna own us
A little piece of land and a handshake you can trust

Yeah, you can trust
People Like us

Yeah, down-home people like us
