THAT'S LIFE
THAT'S WHAT ALL
THE PEOPLE SAY
YOU'RE RIDIN' HIGH
ON MONDAY
SHOT DOWN IN MAY
BUT I
I AIN'T NEVER
GONNA CHANGE MY TUNE
WHEN I'M BACK ON TOP
IN THE MONTH OF JUNE
I SAID THAT'S LIFE
AND AS FUNNY
AS IT MAY SEEM
SOME PEOPLE
GET THEIR KICKS
STOMPIN' ON A DREAM
BUT I
I'LL NEVER LET
IT GET ME DOWN
CAUSE THAT BIG
OLD WORLD
KEEPS SPINNIN' ROUND
BEEN A PUPPET
A PIRATE
A POET
A PAUPER
A PAWN AND A KING
BEEN UP
AND DOWN
BEEN OVER AND OUT
AND I KNOW ONE THING
EACH TIME
THAT I FIND MYSELF
FLAT ON MY FACE
I PICK MYSELF UP
AND GET
BACK IN THE RACE
THAT'S LIFE
AND I CAN'T DENY IT
MANY TIMES I THOUGHT
OF QUITTIN' BABE
BUT MY HEART
WOULDN'T BUY IT
IF I DIDN'T THINK
IT WAS WORTH ONE TRY
I'D JUMP RIGHT
ON A BIG BIRD
AND I'D FLY
BEEN A PUPPET
POET
PIRATE
PAUPER
NOW I'M A KING
BEEN UP
DOWN
I KNOW ONE THING
EACH TIME
THAT I FIND MYSELF
FLAT ON MY FACE
I PICK MYSELF UP
AND GET
BACK IN THE RACE
THAT'S LIFE
AND I CAN'T DENY IT
MANY TIMES I THOUGHT
OF QUITTIN' BABE
BUY MY HEART
DIDN'T BUY IT
IF I DIDN'T THINK
IT WAS WORTH ONE TRY
I'D JUST ROLL MYSELF UP
IN A BIG BALL OOH
AND FLY
SOP BOP TOOBY SHOOP
TOOBY TOOBY DOO
WHOO
