Real Life - Brothertiger

Met her at the high school dance

Down at the Aragon

He was rockin' them parachute pants

Leather high tops on Couple years later

They went and got hitched by a Justice of the peace

Settled down in a Minnesota town

And the rest is history

Baby this is real life

Yeah they’re doin' just fine

Real life, real life alright

Left home when she was 17

Got her first tattoo

Never was the homecoming queen

Never was that cool

Now she’s serving up drinks

And getting new ink

On the east side of LA

Not the choice her mama would make

And she likes it that way

Baby this is real life

Yeah she’s doin' just fine

Real life, real life alright

Ain’t always fun, it ain’t always pretty

Down in the country, up in the city

Everybody’s different but one thing’s true

We all gotta' do what we gotta' do So me and my gypsy heart gonna

Pack up and hit the road

Got a song in this ol guitar

And a string of shows

When that highway calls baby

I’ll come runnin' with my gas tank full

And my six string strumming

Got a few friends that’ll keep on coming

This is all I know

Baby this is real life

Yeah I’m doin' just fine

Real life, real life alright
