That's Life

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 know I'm gonna change that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life
(That's life)
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world
It keeps spinnin' 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
(That's life)
I tell ya,I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, 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 ride 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 and down and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself
layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself
Up and get back in the race
That's life
(That's life)
That's life and 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 and die
my, my
