Van morrison thats life lyrics

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

This big old world keeps spinning round



Chorus

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

I 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



Chorus



Last verse



Bye bye

Bye bye
