That's Life |
| 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 |
| 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 say that’s life, and its funny as it may seem |
| Some people get their kicks steppin' on a dream |
| But I don’t let it, 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 pawn and a king |
| I’ve been up an 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, I tell you -I can’t deny it |
| I thought of quittin', 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 right 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 an down and over and out -and I know one thing |
| Each time I find myself, laying flat on my face |
| I just pick myself up and get back in the race |
| That’s life, I tell you- 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 |
| An die |
| My, my |
