That's Life That's life That's what all the people say You're riding high in April Shot down in May But I'm gonna change that tune When I'm back on top in June I said that's life And as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks Stompin' on a dream But I ain't gonna let it get me down 'Cause this fine ol' world will keep spinning around I've been a puppet a pauper, a pirate A poet, a pawn and a king I've been up and 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 ya, I can't deny it I thought of quitting baby But my heart ain't gonna buy it And if I didn't think that it was worth one single try I'd jump right on a big bird and I'd fly I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate A poet, a pawn and a king I've been up and 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 That's life and I can't deny it Many times I thought of cutting out But my heart ain't gonna buy it But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die Bye, Bye
