Текст песни That's Life/New York, New York (Live at the Churchill) - Shane Hampsheir

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 that tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June

I said, that's life and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin' on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
'Cause this fine old world it keeps spinnin' 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, I can't deny it
Many times I thought of quitting, baby
But this poor old heart ain't gonna buy it
So if there's nothing shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up, in a big ball and die

Start spreadin' the news, I'm leavin' today
I want to be a part of it
New York, New York

These vagabond shoes, are longing to stray
Right through the very heart of it
New York, New York

I wanna to wake up, in a city that doesn't sleep
And find I'm a number one, top of the list
King of the hill, a number one
These little town blues, are melting away
I'm gonna make a brand new start of it
In old New York

If I can make it there
I'm gonna make it anywhere
It's up to you, New York
New York
New York
