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
