Matt Dusk - That's Life Lyrics
That's life, that's what all the people say.You're riding high in April,Shot down in MayBut 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 seemSome people get their kicks,Stompin' on a dreamBut I don't let it, let it get me down,'Cause this fine ol' world it keeps spinning aroundI've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,A poet, a pawn and a king.I've been up and down and over and outAnd 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 lifeI 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 flyI've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate,A poet, a pawn and a king.I've been up and down and over and outAnd I know one thing:Each time I find myself laying flat on my face,I just pick myself up and get back in the raceThat's lifeThat's life and I can't deny itMany times I thought of cutting out But my heart won't buy itBut if there's nothing shakin' come this here julyI'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
