Robbie Williams - That's Life Lyrics

That's life, that's what all people say
You're riding' high in April
Shot down in May
But I guess I have to change that tune
When I'm back on top, 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 old word keeps getting 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 falling flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, and there's no denying
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart just won't buy it
If I didn't think it was worth of a single 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 and over and out
And I know one thing
Each time I find myself falling flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life, and there's no denying
I thought of quitting baby
But my heart won't buy it
If there's nothing shaking here this July
We're gonna roll ourselves up in a big ball and die
