That's Life Lyrics

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 JuneI 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 raceThat'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 flyBeen 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 raceThat'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, ooh, and fly
