That's Life

That's Life - Starlite Singers

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 dream

But I don't let it get me down

'Cause this final word keeps 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

Each time I find myself flat on my face

I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life I tell you can't deny it

I thought of quitting baby

But my heart just won't buy it

If I didn't think it was worth one single try

I jump and ride a big bird and then I 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 my 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 quitting

But my heart just won't buy it

If I didn't think it was worth one single try

I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball

And I'm my mine
