Lyrics:

I was 18 makin' minimum wage

With a letterman jacket and a Chevrolet

I thought I was cool

Yeah, I ruled the school

You were coolatta with the strawberry lips

You had the whole world danglin' at your fingertips

You senior year, and I was your daddy's worst fear

We ran off on graduation night

Thought a couple of left hand rings would make everything alright



With a little bit o' live, little bit o' learn

Little bit o' watchin' a few more candles burn

And findin' out what life was

With a little bit o' fuss little bit o' fight

Little bit o' kiss and makin' up all night

And one day wakin' up, oh in a real love



Well I was 22 workin' double overtime

I was spendin' dollars and makin' dimes

We were overdrawn, and barely hangin' on

Then one night you came to me

With tears in your eyes and the EPT and said 'guess what'

Yeah baby ready or not

Well I just smiled but I was scared to death

How am I gonna' have a kid when I'm still a kid myself



With a little bit o' live, little bit o' learn

Little bit o' watchin' a few more candles burn

And findin' out what life was

With a little bit o' fuss little bit o' fight

Little bit o' kiss and makin' up all night

And one day wakin' up, oh in a real love

Whoa in a real love

Yeah its a real love..



With a little bit o' live, little bit o' learn

Little bit o' watchin' a few more candles burn

And findin' out what life was

With a little bit o' fuss little bit o' fight

Little bit o' kiss and makin' up all night

And one day wakin' up, oh in a real love

Yeah baby, its a real love

Yeah its a real love, baby

Yeah its a real real real real real real real love

Yeah thats right baby
