[Verse 1]
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 their tune
When I'm back on top in June

[Verse 2]
That's life
Funny as it seems
Some people get their kick
Steppin' on dreams
But I refuse, I refuse to let it get me down
'Cause this old world keeps 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 know one thing
Every time I find myself lying flat on my face
I pick myself up, and I get right back in the race

[Verse 3]
That's life
I can't dеny it
I thought of quittin'
But my heart won't buy it
If I, If I didn't think it was worth a try
I'd have to curl up, I'd have to roll up
I'd havе to roll up in a big ball, a big ball
A big ball, I'd have to roll up in a big ball
And die
