That's life (That's life)

That's what people say

You're ridin' high in April

Shot down in May

But I know I'm gonna change their tune

When I'm back on top in June, oh

That's life (That's life)

Funny as it seems

Some people get their kicks just steppin' on a dream

But I won't let it get me down

'Cause this whole world keeps spinnin' around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet

A pawn and a queen

I've been up and down and over and out

But 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)

I can't deny it

I thought of quittin', but my heart just won't buy it

If I didn't think it was worth a try

I'd roll up in a big ball and die

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pawn and a queen

I've been up and down

But I know one thing

Each time I find myself flat on my face

I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life (That's life)

I can't deny it (Life)

I thought of quittin', but my heart just won't buy it (Life)

If I didn't think it was worth a try

I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die
