That's Life

by Marion Montgomery

[Verse 1]
That's life
Yesss, that's what people say
You're riding high in April, then you're shot down in May
But I know I'm gonna change their little tune
When I'm back on top, when I'm back on top in June

[Verse 2]
Yes indeedy, that's life
Funny as it seems
Some people get their kicks just steppin' on other people's dreams
But I won't let it get me down
'Cause this old world keeps right on a spinnin' around

[Chorus]
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 really know one thing
I know that each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get right back in the race

[Verse 3]
And brother, that's life
I really can't deny it
I thought of quittin'
But my heart just won't buy it
But if there's nothing shaking by July
I'm gonna roll up in a big ball and die
Thnk I will die
I'm gonna roll up in a great big ball
I'm gonna die
