That's Life - Frank Sinatra

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 in June. 

That's life, funny as it seems. 
Some people get their kicks, 
Steppin' on dreams; 
But I don't let it get me down, 
'Cause this ol' world 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 can't deny it, 
I thought of quitting, 
But my heart just won't buy it. 
If I didn't think it was worth a 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 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 just won't buy it. 
But if nothing's changing come this here July
I'm going to roll myself up in a big ball and die.
