Lyrics Life Is so Peculiar - Louis Jordan
Life
is
so
peculiar
You
get
so
wet
in
the
rain,
you
know
I
do
You
get
so
warm
in
the
sunshine,
get
my
sun
tan
It
doesn't
pay
to
complain,
I
never
complain
When
I
get
up
each
morning
There's
nothing
to
breathe
but
air,
yeah
And
when
I
look
in
the
mirror
There's
nothing
to
comb
but
hair
And
when
I
sit
down
to
breakfast
There's
nothing
to
eat
but
food
Life
is
so
peculiar
But
you
can't
stay
home
and
brood
Oh,
life,
tell
'em
about
it
pops,
is
so
peculiar
The
desert's
only
got
sand,
and
that's
grand
The
oceans
only
got
water,
and
you
can't
drink
it
all
up
And
you
never
know
where
you
stand
When
I
get
out
to
dinner
There's
nothing
to
wear
but
clothes,
yeah
And
whenever
I
get
sleepy
There's
nothing
to
do
but
doze,
yeah
And
whenever
I
get
thirsty
There's
nothing
to
do
but
drink
Life
is
no
peculiar
That
it
makes
you
stop
and
think
Yes,
life
is
so
peculiar,
sure
it
is
A
fork
belongs
with
the
knife,
it
sure
does
Corn
beef
is
lost
without
cabbage,
I
love
cabbage
Husband
should
have
a
wife
Yes,
life
is
so
peculiar
But
as
everybody
says
That's
life
Life,
yes
life,
it's
so
peculiar
A
bird
can
usually
sing,
no
words,
I
do
too
A
pearl
is
made
by
an
oyster,
New
Orleans?
Rampart
Street
You
can't
be
sure
of
a
thing
When
I
get
tired
of
restin'
There's
nothing
to
do
but
walk,
walk
it
off
pop
And
when
I
don't
care
to
listen
There's
nothing
to
do
but
talk,
keep
you
big
mouth
shut
When
I'm
up
in
the
airplane
There's
nothing
to
do
but
fly
Life
is
so
peculiar
But
I
often
wonder
why
Oh,
life,
is
so
peculiar,
sure
it
is
A
fork
belongs
with
a
knife,
you
know
Corn
beef
is
lost
without
cabbage,
leftover
cabbage?
Yeah
A
husband
should
have
a
wife
Yes,
life
is
so
peculiar
But
as
everybody
says
That's
life
One
more
for
me
Jim,
that's
life
Let
me
hear
it
one
time,
that's
life
All
together,
that's
life,
yeah!
