That's Entertainment Songtext
von Aretha Franklin

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
Stomping on a dream
But I don′t let it, let it get me down
Cause this fine all world it keeps spinning around

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a queen
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 baby
But my heart just ain't going to 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 queen
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

Many times I thought of cutting out
But my heart won't buy it
But if there′s nothing shaking come this here July
I'm going to roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My
