Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries

(album: Mathis On Broadway - 2000)

Why are we here?
Where are we going?
It's time that we found out
We're not here to stay
We're on a short holiday

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious, life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go

So keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?

Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't take it serious, life's too mysterious

So keep repeating, it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned?

Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
Live and laugh at it all
