Testo Life Is So Peculiar - Louis Armstrong feat. Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five
Testo della canzone Life Is So Peculiar (Louis Armstrong feat. Louis Jordan & His Tympany Five), tratta dall'album In 2 Jumps & Jive
Life
Is so peculiar
(You get so wet in the rain)
You know it too? (Mm-hm)
You get so warm in the sunshine (get my sun tan)
(It doesn't pay to complain)
I never complain
When I get up each morning
There's nothing to breathe but air (yeah)
(And when I look in the mirror)
(There's nothing to comb but hair)
And when I sit down to breakfast
There's nothing to eat but food
Life is so peculiar but you can't stay home and brood
Oh, life (tell 'em 'bout it, Pops)
Is so peculiar
The desert's only got sand (and that's grand)
The ocean's only got water (and you can't drink it all up)
You never know where you stand
When I get out to dinner
There's nothing to wear but clothes (yeah)
And whenever I get sleepy
There's nothing to do but doze (yeah)
And whenever I get thirsty
There's nothing to do but drink
Life is so peculiar that it makes you stop and think
Yes, life (boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa)
Is so peculiar (it sure is)
A fork belongs with the knife (it sure does)
(Corn beef is lost without cabbage)
I love cabbage
A husband should have a wife
(Yes) life is so peculiar but as everybody says
That's life!
Life (yes, life)
Is so peculiar
A bird can usually sing (I'm no bird, I do too)
A pearl is made by an oyster (New Orleans?)
Rampart Street
You can't be sure of a thing
When I get tired of restin'
There's nothing to do but walk (walk it off, Pop)
And when I don't care to listen
There's nothing to do but talk (keep your big mouth shut)
When I'm up in the airplane
There's nothing to do but fly (mm-hm)
Life is so peculiar but I often wonder why
Oh, life (boop-a-doo-wa-boo-waa)
Is so peculiar (sure is)
A fork belongs with a knife, you know (mm-mm)
(Corn beef is lost without cabbage)
Leftover cabbage? (Yeah)
A husband should have a wife
(Yes) life is so peculiar but as everybody says
That's life!
One more for me Jim
(That's life)
Let me have one Jack
(That's life)
All together
(That's life)
Yeah
