That's life, that's what 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.
That's life, funny as it seems.
Some people get their kicks,
Steppin' on your dreams;
But I don't, don't let it get me down,
'Cause this fine ol' world keeps going 'round.
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 can't deny it,
I thought of quitting,
But my heart just won't buy it.
If I didn't think it was worth one single try,
I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die
