Lyrics That's Life - Russell Watson

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 funny as it seems
Some people get their kicks
Stepping on dreams
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this final word it's 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
But I know one thing
Each time I find myself laying 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 try, (one 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
But 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), I tell you and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart just won't buy it
And if there's nothing shaking come here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, my
