REAL FINE LOVE (John Hiatt)
Well I never went to college, babe. I did not have the luck. Rolled out of Indiana in the back of a pickup truck With no education higher than the street of my hometown. I went lookin' for a fire just to burn it all down.
CHORUS: You've got a real fine love. You've got a real fine love, One I am unworthy of. You've got a real fine love, baby.
I thought I had a line on something maybe no one else could say, And they couldn't find it in their hearts to just get out of my way. Then out of nowhere, and from nothing, you came into my life. I'd seen an angel or two before but I'd never asked one to be my wife. CHORUS
Well you can sprinkle all your teardrops across the evening sky But you cannot hide the twinkle of starlight in your eye Well I left my map way back there, baby. I don't know where we are, But I'm gonna pull my pony up and hitch my wagon to your star. CHORUS
Well now, the babies are all sleeping and the twilight's givin' in She looks like you, he looks like her, and we all look like him Well maybe it's just the little thing the way I feel tonight, A little joy, a little peace. CHORUS TWICE
