That's Life Lyrics

Bono That's Life

That's life, that's what all the people say You're ridin' high in April, you're 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 say 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, get me down 'Cause this old world, just keeps spinnin' around

I've been a puppet, a poet, a pauper, a pirate, 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 tell ya, I can't deny it I thought of quitting baby, but my heart just won't buy it And if I didn't think it was worth just one more try I'd roll myself up in a big ball and die

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king I've been up and down, over and out, I know one thing Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face I just pick myself up and I get back in the race

That's life, I can't deny it I thought of quitting baby, but my heart just won't buy it But if there's nothin' shakin' come here this July I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
