That's Life

That's life -That's what all the people say
You're ridin' high in April, Shot down in May
But I Know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I say that's life, and its funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks steppin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet -a pawn and a king
I've been up an down and over and out -and I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, I tell you -I can't deny it
I thought of quittin', baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly


I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet -a pawn and a king
I've been up an down and over and out -and I know one thing
Each time I find myself, laying flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, I tell you- I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out, but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball...
An die
My, my...
