That's Life

That's life, that's what 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 in June.

That's life, funny as it seems.

Some people get their kicks,

Steppin' on dreams

But I don't let it get me down,

Cause this ol' word keeps getting 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, I can't deny it,

I thought of quitting,

But my heart just won't buy it.

If I didn't think it was worth a try,

I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die.
