That's Life

Dean Kay, Kelly L. Gordon

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
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 outta stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, I don't let it get me down
'Cause this ol' 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 laying 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 quitting, baby
But my heart just ain't gonna 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 laying 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 thought of cuttin' out
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if nothing shakin' 'round here come July
I just roll myself up in a big ball and die
