Real People Lyrics - Melinda Schneider

At a roadhouse an hour outta Rocky 

She said "You look like you need a cup of coffee" 

"Pull up a chair, I'll be over in a jiffy", 

Really made me feel at home 

We got talking 'bout her hubby and kids 

And how she wouldn't change her life for quids 

I was thinking how lucky she is 

To be so satisfied with her lot in life 

Chorus 

Real people 

There's nothing not to like about 'em 

Posers and primadonnas I reckon we can do without 'em 

Salt of the Earth know where you stand 

Throw you a rope lend you a hand 

Real people 

Blew a tyre on a broken beer bottle 

I tried to change it but I was having trouble 

When a truckie with a two day stubble 

Said "Need a hand there love?" 

We got talking 'bout life on the road 

And how he loves his country radio 

He said "Hey aren't you that Beccy Cole?" 

I said "Yeah something like that" 

And signed "Love Beccy" on his hat 

Repeat Chorus 

Real people 

Salt of the Earth know where you stand 

Love what you do do what you can 

Throw you a rope lend you a hand 

Real people 

There's nothing not to like about 'em 

Posers and primadonnas I reckon we can do without 'em 

Real people 

There's nothing not to like about 'em 

Posers and primadonnas I reckon we can do without 'em 

Real people 

Real people
