Lyrics

 * Had a wife 'til the good Lord took her.
 * He brought her down
 * With an air-bazooka.
 * Now I'm missin' her meatloaf
 * And her low-fat apple strudel.
 * But that's life,
 * That's life-a-ringy-a-dingy-dind-ding-doodle.


 * I've been a winner, a loser, a lover, a liver,
 * A dad to Todd and to Rod.
 * I live next door to Homer Simpson,
 * And I still believe in God.
 * And each time I fe-fo-find myself down on my knewws
 * I don't even ask, "How-do, Lord, why me?"


 * No siree-bob! That's life,
 * And I won't dispute it.
 * Run it up the ol' flag-diddily-pole,
 * I'll stand and salute it.
 * That's life,
 * So darn pick-adilly fickle.
 * One day I'm thinkin' it ain't worth a silly nickel.
 * The next day I'm feelin' frisky
 * As a miniature poodle.
 * Becuase that's life,
 * That's life-a-ringy-a-dingy-dind-ding-doodle!
