That's Life Lyrics

I'm like sitting in me boozer

Saw this bird and thought I'd schmooze 'er

Why wait? I'm thinking this could be fate

She looks great, but I'm too late

There's a geezer in a whistle

Pricklier than a thistle

He's well in and I was thinking he was a tin

I can't win, but gotta grin

But she might just be the one, son, you never can tell

If I fixed her with me minces, put her under me spell

Thinking she's in heaven while yours truly's in hell

That's life, that's life, that's life

So feelin' a bit defeated

Licked me wounds and I retreated

Another pint and I settles down for the night

She's worth a chat, but ain't all that

So I minds me own, keep drinking

But that bird she got me thinking

I just might, and if I get my timing just right

If she's tight, tonight's the night

Stranger things have happened to mice and men

She's had a butcher's at me and she's done it again

I've had a couple more swifties now I'd give her a ten

That's life, that's life, that's life

So, I pops out for a salmon

Try to get me game on

Oh I'm cool, and the Lord knows I'm no fool

But who's that heading over, ain't the local wildlife

Holy Flaming Nora, it's me trouble and strife

Looking daggers at me and carrying a knife

On my life!

Like a whippet down the dog track

I ain't about to look back

Can't pretend, she'll 'av me in the end

There never was a time when I more needed a friend

I bungs the Governor a drink, he'll defend me

He's seen it all before and knows I'll be round again

I'm straight over that bar and out his back door

Never run bleedin' faster except from the law

And here's me telling you son, you know the score

My life. My life. My life
