That's Life

(albüm: Allow Us To Be Frank - 2004)

That's life
(That's life)

That's what all the 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

I said that's life
(That's life)

And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks stomping on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinning around
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
(That's life)

I tell you I can't deny it, I thought of quitting, baby
But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
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 laying flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
(That's life)

That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart just won't buy it
But if there's nothing shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, my
