Viewing Lyrics for The Real Life:
| | | Artist: | Mellencamp John Cougar |
| | Album: | The Lonesome Jubilee | | Track: | The Real Life | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 1 | | | | Lyrics: | Suzanne divorced her husband
She got the kyes to the car and the home
But her friends were
really his friends
No one stops by to see her much any more
So one night she goes back
down to the old haunts
That once upon a time were her own
She didn't know nobody out there
no more
And the whole experience just made her feel so old
She
says
CHORUS
I want to live the real life
I want to live my life close to the
bone
Just because I'm middle-aged that don't mean
I want to sit around my house and watch
TV
I want the real life
I want to live the real life
Jackson Jackson was a good
kid
He had four years of college and a Bachelor's degree
Started workin' when he was
21
Got fed up and quit
When he was 43
He said, "My whole life
I've done what I'm
supposed to do
Now I'd like to maybe do something for myself
And just as soon as I figure
out what that is
You can bet your life I'm gonna give it hell."
He
says
CHORUS
I guess it don't matter how old you are
Or how old one lives
to be
I guess it boils down to what we did with our lives
And how e deal with our own
destinies
But something happens
When you reach a certain age
Particularly to those
ones that are young at heart
It's a lonely proposition when you realize
That there's less
days in front of the horse
Than riding in the back of this cart
I
say
CHORUS
