That’s Life Lyrics by Bobby Conte Thornton

Along the Way

2020

[Verse 1]
That's life
That's what 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 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 old world it keeps spinning around
[Chorus]
I've been a puppet, pauper, pirate, poet, a pawn, and a king
I've been up, down, over and out, but I know one thing
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
[Verse 2]
That's life
I can't deny it (mm)
I thought of quitting, babe
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
[Chorus]
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, but 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
[Outro]
That's life
And I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out but my poor heart just ain't gonna buy it
But if there's nothing shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
