That's Life Lyrics

That's life (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 (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 old world, it keeps spinnin' 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 (that's life), I tell you 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 layin' flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die

My, my!

I heard this on Tony Hawk's Underground 2 of all places. I absolutely fell in love and have been ever since. I used to think Frank was just for old, boring people, but that's so not true. The guy was a bad-ass.

Definitely one of Frank's all time BEST. One of my top 3 or 4 favorites of his.

undoubtedly my favourite. I bought the infamous Frank Sinatra Greatest Hits LP at a garage sale in grade 9 and it's still in my frequently played pile. I live by this song.

Not my favourite by this guy, but sometimes I just have to put it on repeat til everything feels better. I adore him.

I had a dream this morning that everyone was singing this song on a tour bus and I started to get teary eyed as I listened. It is a happy song mixed with a bit of melancholy. It was my grandad’s favourite song my mother tells me. Maybe it was him sending me a message to get through this empty nest syndrome as my last child moves off to University. That’s Life !
