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 THEIR KICKS
STOMPIN' ON A DREAM
BUT I DON'T LET IT
LET IT GET ME DOWN
'CAUSE THIS
FINE OLD WORLD
IT 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
FLAT ON MY FACE
I PICK
MYSELF
UP
AND GET
BACK
IN THE RACE
THAT'S LIFE
I TELL YA
I CAN'T DENY IT
I THOUGHT OF
QUITTIN' BABY
BUT MY HEART
JUST AIN'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
LAYIN'
FLAT ON MY FACE
I JUST 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
CUTTIN' OUT
BUT MY HEART
WON'T BUY IT
BUT IF THERE'S
NOTHIN' SHAKIN'
COME THIS HERE JULY
I'M GONNA
ROLL MYSELF UP
IN A BIG BALL
AND DIE
MY MY
