Alice Peacock - Real Life lyrics

rate me

<br>

Met her at the high school dance down at the Aragon<br />

He was rockin’ them parachute pants, leather high tops on<br />

Couple years later they went and got hitched by a<br />

Justice of the peace<br />

Settled down in a Minnesota town and the rest is history<br />

<br />

Baby this is real life, yeah they’re doin’ just fine<br />

Real life, real life alright<br />

<br />

Left home when she was 17, got her first tattoo<br />

Never was the homecoming queen, never was that cool<br />

Now she’s serving up drinks and getting new ink<br />

On the east side of L.A.<br />

Not the choice her mama would make and she likes it that way<br />

<br />

Baby this is real life, yeah she’s doin’ just fine<br />

Real life, real life alright<br />

<br />

Ain’t always fun, it ain’t always pretty<br />

Down in the country, up in the city<br />

Everybody’s different but one thing’s true<br />

We all gotta’ do what we gotta’ do<br />

<br />

So me and my gypsy heart gonna<br />

Pack up and hit the road<br />

Got a song in this ol guitar and a string of shows<br />

When that highway calls baby I’ll come runnin’<br />

With my gas tank full and my six string strumming<br />

Got a few friends that’ll keep on coming<br />

This is all I know<br />

<br />

Baby this is real life, yeah I’m doin’ just fine<br />

Real life, real life alright

<br><br><br><br>
