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
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get a big ol' kick out of stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, I don't let it get me down
'Cause this old world just 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 lyin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
'Cause that's life

And I can't deny it
I thought of quittin', baby
But my heart just ain't gon' buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth a single try
I'd just jump 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 lyin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up, and I get back in the race
'Cause that's life

And I just can't deny it
Many times I've thought of cuttin' out but
My heart just ain't gon' buy it
And if nothing shakin' around here come July
I'll just roll myself up in a big ball and die
