Michael Bolton That’s Life Lyrics

That’s Life Lyrics

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 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 just pick myself up and get back in the race



That's life, that's life, and I can't deny it

I thought of quitting, baby, 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 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 layin' 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 just won't buy it

If there's nothing shaking come this here July

I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die, that's life

[Incomprehensible] that's life, ohh, my, my
