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 ol` 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 ya, I can`t deny it, I thought of quitting baby, But my heart just ain`t gonna 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
