Lyric

That’s life (that’s life)That’s what all the people sayYou’re riding high in April, shot down in MayBut I know I’m gonna change that tuneWhen I’m back on top, back on top in June
I said that’s life (that’s life)And as funny as it may seemSome people get their kicksStomping on a dreamBut I don’t let it, let it get me downCause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin’ around
I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poetA pawn and a kingI’ve been up and down and over and outAnd I know one thingEach time I find myselfFlat on my faceI pick myself up and getBack in the race
That’s life (that’s life)I tell you, I can’t deny itI thought of quitting, babyBut my heart just ain’t gonna buy itAnd if I didn’t think it was worth one single tryI’d jump right on a big bird and then I’d fly
I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poetA pawn and a kingI’ve been up and down and over and outAnd I know one thingEach time I find myself layin’Flat on my faceI just pick myself up and getBack in the race
That’s life (that’s life)That’s life and I can’t deny itMany times I thought of cutting out, but my heart won’t buy itBut if there’s nothing shaking, come this here JulyI’m gonna roll myself upIn a big ball and die
My, my
