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
When I'm back on top,
back on top in June

I said that's life (that's life),
and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
stompin' on a dream

But I don't let it, let it get me down
'cause this fine old world,
it keeps spinnin' 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 (that's life),
I tell you I can't deny it
( From: http://www.*** )
I thought of quitting, 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 and down and over
and out and I know one thing

Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life (that's life),
that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out
but my heart won't buy it

But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die

My, my!
