Real live woman

Real live woman Lyrics

I don't buy the lines in magazines, that tell me what I've gotta be
I don't base my life on the movie screen
I don't fit the mold society has planned

I don't need to be nineteen years old,
Or starve myself for some weight I'm told
Will turn men's heads, been down that road
And I thank God I finally know..just who I am

I ain't a movie star,
They never see the view from where they are
And this old town may be as far as I'm going
What he'll hold tonight, in his hands
He swears is so much better than
Anything that this old world can show him

Cause I'm a real, live woman
In love with this man I see lying here next to me
Lost in the way that he's holding
This real, live woman
In the arms of a man where I'll fall asleep knowing there's
Nothing on earth he loves more than,
This real, live, woman

I work 9 to 5 and I can't relate
To millionaires who somehow fate
Has smiled upon and fortune made their
Common lives a better place, to be

And I no longer justify, reasons for the way that I behave
I offer no apologies, for the things that I believe and say
And I like it that way

Chorus:
Cause I'm a real, live woman
In love with this man I see lying here next to me
Lost in the way that he's holding
This real, live, woman
In the arms of a man where I'll fall asleep knowing there's
Nothing on earth he loves more than,
This real, live, woman.
