C’est-La-Vie (That’s Life) Songtext
von Magna Carta

Man gets born
into the world
spends his whole time
lookin′ for a girl
he wants to get married
take himself a wife
you can hear him say on his wedding day

all that trouble and strife cuts you like a knife


buys himself a home
four square walls
he wants to call his own
he gets himself a mortgage
and lots of trouble and strife
you can hear him say, everyday

That trouble and strife cuts you like a knife

He goes to work each day on the crowded factory floor
just to keep his wife in style like the folks that live next door
he comes home at half past six,
he can't take nomore
what′s he doing it for?

Man grows old
leaving behind
his good woman to cry
she looks after his children
like the faithful wife
you can hear her say now her man's away

all that trouble and strife cuts you like a knife
