paroles de chanson Life Is So Peculiar - Louis Armstrong feat. Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five

Life
Is so peculiar
(You get so wet in the rain)
You know it too? (Mm-hm)
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 'bout it, Pops)
Is so peculiar
The desert's only got sand (and that's grand)
The ocean's only got water (and you can't drink it all up)
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 so peculiar that it makes you stop and think

Yes, life (boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa)
Is so peculiar (it sure is)
A fork belongs with the knife (it sure does)
(Corn beef is lost without cabbage)
I love cabbage
A husband should have a wife
(Yes) life is so peculiar but as everybody says
That's life!

Life (yes, life)
Is so peculiar
A bird can usually sing (I'm no bird, 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 your big mouth shut)
When I'm up in the airplane
There's nothing to do but fly (mm-hm)
Life is so peculiar but I often wonder why

Oh, life (boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa)
Is so peculiar (sure is)
A fork belongs with a knife, you know (mm-mm)
(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 have one Jack
(That's life)
All together
(That's life)
Yeah
