Frank Sinatra - That's Life



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, 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 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
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 tell you, I can't deny it
I thought of quitting, But my heart just won't buy it
And if I didn't think it was worth one single 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
And 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 and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My
