That's Life

Don't let it get you, don't let it get you down

For this world keeps on spinning 'round

That's life

That's what all the people say

You're riding high in April

You're shot down in May

I know I'm gonna change that tune

When I'm back on top in June

I say that's life

And as funny as it may seem

Some people get their kicks

Stompin' on your dreams

But I don't let it, let it get me down

'Cause this fine ol' world keeps spinning 'round

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

But I know one thing

Each time I find myself, flat on this face

I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life

I can't deny it

I thought of quitting, baby

This heart wasn'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, flat on this face

I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life

That's life and I can't deny it

Many times I thought of cutting out

But my heart won't buy it

But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna roll

I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die

Can't deny it

Don't let it take you down

Don't let it keep you down

That's life
