That's life, that's what people say
Youre riding high in april,
Shot down in may
But I know Im gonna change that tune,
When Im back on top in june

That's life, funny as it seems
Some people get their kicks,
Steppin on dreams;
But I don't let it get me down,
Cause this ol word keeps getting around

Ive been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,
A poet, a pawn and a king
Ive 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 wont buy it
If I didn't think it was worth a try,
Id roll myself up in a big ball and die
