Thats life Thats what all the people say
Youre ridin' high in April, Shot down in May
But I Know Im gonna change that tune
When Im back on top, back on top in June
I say thats life, and its funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks steppin' on a dream
But I dont let it, let it get me down
Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinning around
Ive been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet a pawn and a king
Ive 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
Thats life, I tell you I cant deny it
I thought of quittin', baby, but my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didnt think it was worth one single try
Id jump right on a big bird and then Id fly
Ive been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet a pawn and a king
Ive 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
Thats life, I tell you- I cant deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out, but my heart wont buy it
But if theres nothing shakin' come this here July
Im gonna roll myself up in a big ball
An die
My, my
