That's Life

That's life, That's Life

that's what all the people say.

You're riding high on Monday,

shot down in May.

But I, I ain't never gonna change my tune

when I'm back on top in the month of June.

I said, that's life. That's Life

Ain't as funny as it may seem,

some people get their kicks

stompin' on a dream.

But I, I don't never let it get me down

'cause that big ol' world keeps spinnin' 'round.

Been a puppet, pirate, a poet, a pauper, a pawn and a king.

Been up and down and over and out and I know one thing:

each time that 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 quitting, babe,

but my heart wouldn't buy it.

If I didn't think it was worth one try

I'd jump right on a big bucket and fly.

Been a puppet, poet, pirate, pauper; now I'm a king.

Been up, down, I know one thing:

each time that 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 quitting, babe,

but my heart wouldn't buy it.

If I didn't think it was worth one try

I'd just roll myself up in a big ball and fly.
