State Road 21/The Real World Lyrics > Bridges of Madison County, The

GIRL SINGER
Come on, children, and climb in the back seat!
Come on, children, it's time for some fun!
Get inside, we're gonna take a ride
On State Road 21!

Come on, children, I filled up the gas tank.
Long way to go before we get done.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!

GIRL SINGER AND COMPANY
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!

Fiddle solo!

MICHAEL
Since 9 p.m., I been sittin' here,
Just keeping' my eye on some stupid steer.
That's how I'm spending' my Junior year!
But I swear I'm gettin' wise.

It's my last time here, I guarantee!
I got other places I'm s'posed to be.
I won't have my old man ridin' me
'Til the day he up and dies.

Oh, oh, what does he know
When his head's been buried in the ground so low?
Oh, oh, what does he know
About life in the real world?
I said, Oh, oh, what does he know?
My fuse is lit and I'm gonna blow,
'Cause Oh, oh, I gotta know
About life in the real world.

CAROLYN
I got a ringin' in my ears
And my hands keep shakin'.
I ate seven corn dogs
And I think I might die.
Five more hours
'Til the final judging.
I can hold it all together
And I will not cry.

Oh God! Do I have a fever?
Oh God, things are startin' to swirl.
Oh God, I was doin' so well,
Now they're all gonna think I'm just a dumb little girl.

Well, oh, oh, what do they know
About what it takes to make a bull calf grow?
Oh, oh, what do they know
About life in the real world?

CAROLYN AND MICHAEL
Oh, oh, what do they know?

CAROLYN
Prob'ly came over from Ohio.

CAROLYN AND MICHAEL
And oh, oh, what do they know
About life in the real world?

GIRL SINGER
Let's go, baby, and roll by the river
Feel the heat comin' down from the sun -
Oh oh oh oh
On State Road 21!
Ev'rybody:
