That's Life

Again, it's been a while. sorry. My life is pretty uninteresting these days..mostly the same thing. I'm dogsitting this week so I'm glad for that! I love this dog! Haha. :)


I started watching this movie yesterday: Elizabethtown, I've seen it before but I was half asleep most of the time. I thought maybe this time it would be a little more interesting..WRONG. I watched a little, got bored, watched more this morning and finished it this evening. The following song was in it and I really liked it. I'm not sure why but I did. :) It's by James Brown and it's called That's Life.


[if you have high speed or not dial up internet, and you can, you should listen to it from the link below except it's Frank Sinatra singing it because the James Brown one sounded dumb..not like movie at all]


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, 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 ol' world it 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 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 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 laying flat on my face,
I just pick myself up and get back in the race

That's life
That's life and I can't deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out 
But my heart won't buy it
But if there's nothing shakin' come this here july
I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, My
