Joe South - Real Thing Lyrics

Lyrics Real Thing - Joe South



All right
Some people get their kicks
When they bring confusion
Comin' on with miracle licks
But it's only illusion
And all the while your real thing
Talkin' 'bout your real thing
Just ride on by you
Hey, hey, yeah
Well, I'm not here to meet
Your expectations
'Specially while you're out in the street
Chasin' cheap imitations
I'm here to tell ya that your real thing
You better believe this real thing
Slids right on by you
Well, grass looks so much greener
In somebody else's backyard
I hate to be the one to heave it to you, baby
But truth is bound to hit you hard
I know it's kinda hard for you to get to
But I can't be controlled
Try to find it often, baby
Right before it's sold
Yeah
Hey, hey, yeah
Baby, you have no idea
What I've just been through
And there are no more corners here
That they can back us into
They're all lookin' for the real thing
So don't you ever let your real thing
Get away from you
Hey, child
Say, you gonna use it
Whoa, come on or
You gonna lose it
Keep your eyes on the real thing
Whatever you do
Don't go wrong, it's a real thing
Don't run away from it
Talkin' 'bout your real thing
Ol' forty second hand deal thing
Can't be plastic, fantastic, elastic
Oo-aww, gotta have it now
'Cause that's the real thing
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Yeah
