That's Life Songtext / Lyric

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 said: that's life,
And as funny as it may seem,
Some people get their kicks,
Stepping on a dream;
But I don't let it, don’t 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 queen and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know just one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That's life, no I can't deny it,
Many times I thought of cuttin’ out
But my heart won’t buy it,
But if I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd just jump on a big bird, and then I’ll cry

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a queen and a king,
I've been up and down and over and out
And I know just one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face,
I pick myself up and get back in the race.

That’s life,
No, I can’t deny it
Many times I thought of quittin’,
But my heart won’t buy it,
But if there’s nothing shaking
From this here to July,
I’m gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die.

That’s life!
