That's Life Songtext / Lyric

That's life, that's what all people say

You're riding high in April, shot down in May

But I guess I have to change that tune

When I'm back on top, back on top in June



That's life, funny as it seems

Some people get their kicks steppin' on dreams

But I don't let it get me down

'Cause this old word keeps getting 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 falling flat on my face

I pick myself up and get back in the race



That's life, and there's no denying

I thought of quitting baby but my heart just won't buy it

If I didn't think it was worth of a single try

I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die



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 falling flat on my face

I pick myself up and get back in the race



That's life, and there's no denying

I thought of quitting baby, but my heart won't buy it

If there's nothing shaking here this July

We're gonna roll ourselves up in a big ball and die
