This was the "flip side" of a 45 rpm record from the '60s sung by Frank Sinatra. I grew up in an Italian American neighborhood in Williamsburg, I'm still there. This became a theme song for my group of friends. Long story. Was sung at bachelor parties, weddings, later family/friends reunions and birthdays. By the '60s Sinatra was the parents' music but I always thought it was "folk" music for Italian Americans of a certain age. For us baby boomers who are at least part Italian, that is what he has become in later years. The lyrics have power. Never give up. I don't like the ending, like it when the ending is "and fly," but I'm over 60 now. I love it that a new, young singer reinterprets it for today and the song still retains the same verve and power. Lauren can sing. Great version. Thanks for posting!
WOW¡¡¡Since I heard your voice I have not been able to stop listening to your music and all the covers you do (especially the ones you did to Jim Morrison). I admire your attitude and especially your voice. Greetings from Mexico Atte: a crazy fan
She’s a legend. I found her on UA-cam many years ago, and can’t believe that she is not the stature of a Dolly Parton, Tammy, Wynette, Loretta Lynn or some of the other legends.

Блин сколько я переслушал исполнений этой песни... не счесть. Лучше этой просто нет. Это тот редкий случай, когда один написал хорошую песню, а другой превратил ее в шедевр.
Undoubtedly THEE best cover every done in the history of the world ...of this song. Lauren Ruth Ward - you are amazing. A beautiful flowing force to be reckoned with. Thank you for sharing your incredible gifts to this world.
Умничка )) И сама великолепна, а с Майком вместе вы божественны. Первый раз когда увидел, это была Агиллеровская песня, я даже задумался чей дуэт мне больше нравится. Ваш или их... в общем оба нравятся. Ваш как-то живей и честней... Возможно это из-за отсутствия аранжировки. Вы молодцы. Я крайне уважаю 5-х, но ваше с Майком исполнение их OMN просто шикарно, и у меня даже сомнений не возникает какую версию слушать, если вдруг захотелось послушать эту песню. Удачи. И тебе Лора, и Майку передай. Если что, не знаю кто замутил Hold the line, но мне кажется, что это сделал именно он. Так или иначе получилось. Думаю, если бы ты там была, и еще ОДИН кто-то, было бы лучше.

J'adore ..
That's life
That's what all the people say
You're riding high in April, shot down in May
I will never let it change my tune
When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I said that's life
(That's life)
And as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stomping on a dream
But I don't let it, let it get me down
Cause this fine old world, it keeps spinnin' 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
(That's life)
I tell you, 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 layin'
Flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get
Back in the race
That's life
(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 shaking come this here July
I'm gonna roll myself up
In a big o ball and die
My, my

Ma... ma... che voce meravigliosa!!!! E chi se lo immaginava?!!! Mi ha fatto venire i brividi!
Блин сколько я переслушал исполнений этой песни... не счесть. Лучше этой просто нет. Это тот редкий случай, когда один написал хорошую песню, а другой превратил ее в шедевр.
Absolutely wonderful vocals. One of my favourite songs and now one of my favourite covers.

Super tolle Künstlerin. Sie müsste viel mehr Beachtung finden. Ich liebe ihre Stimme. 👍👍👍👍❤️

Joker had me looking for thats life & I love your voice ❤
I found Lauren through LP, and I love her unique voice.
I am so picky when it comes to people doing Frankie songs. This was amazing. Sang with emotion like Frank.
Undoubtedly THEE best cover every done in the history of the world ...of this song. Lauren Ruth Ward - you are amazing. A beautiful flowing force to be reckoned with. Thank you for sharing your incredible gifts to this world.
Just can’t agree. But I guess it’s a generational thing.. Too bad people have lost the ability to understand soul.
Frank is always the original. You can feel his voice. I just don’t get the same from her
You need to hear the Shawn James cover, that's the COVER!
Excellent cover of this song. Sounds great and very clean. Love it!!
I am blown away!!!!
Great cover. It's my favorite song for a funeral. Specifically mine. 💜
Just beautiful! Aren't we, artists, all, in some way, The Joker?
wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there;s no other voice like this.
