That's Life Songtext
von Van Morrison

That′s life
That's what the people say
You′re riding high in april
Shot down in may
I know I've got to change my tune
When I get back up on top in june

That's life
Funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks from stepping on a dream
I don′t let it get me down (no-no-no)
This big old world keeps spinning round

I′ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king
I've been up, down, over and out
And I know one thing
Every time I find myself flat on my face
Pick myself up and get back in the race


That′s life
I can't deny it
I thought of quitting but my heart wouldn′t buy it
If I don't think it′s worth a try
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die

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
Every time I find myself flat on my face
Pick myself up and get back in the race

That′s life
I can't deny it
I thought of quitting but my heart wouldn′t buy it (no-no-no)
If I don't think it′s worth a try
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball
Roll myself up in a big ball
Roll myself up in a big ball and
Bye bye
Bye bye
