I don't buy the lines in magazines
That tell me what I've gotta be
Don't base my life on a movie screen
Don't fit the mold society has planned.
I don't need to be 19 years old
Or starve myself for some weight I'm told
Or turn men's heads 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 this old world can show him
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 9-5 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
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
