That's Life

That's Life - Big Maybelle

That's life that's what all the people say

You're riding high in April shot down in May

But I know I'm gonna change that tune

Yes yes

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

I said that's life

And funny as it may seem

Some people get their kicks just stompin' on a dream

But I don't let it

I don't let it get me down

No no

'Cause this fine old world it keeps woman spinning 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

Yeah each time I find myself

Just flat on my face

I pick myself up and jump back into the race

That's life

And I can't deny it

You know I'm call a calling it by

But my heart my heart is ain't gonna buy it

And I didn't think it was

Worth one one truble try

I'd jump on one 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 just flat on my face

I pick myself up and jump back in the race

That's life

That's life no I can't deny it

I thought of cutting

Wish what my mind

My heart giving wanna by

You know that something don't have come in

Ever this come in July

I'm gonna roll myself in one big ball

And I'm gonna die

I say I'm gonna roll myself in one big ball

And I'm gonna die

That's right

That's right

Right
