"That's What It Is" lyrics - BACHMAN & TURNER

Goina' down lifea's highway
Sometimes you get lost
Hurryina' to nowhere
You forget what you forgot

Lookina' for a miracle,
Following a dream
You get knocked down you get back up
But thata's no guarantee
You got it fixed

Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
Thata's what it is
When you get into the game
Thata's what it is, n-not what it aina't
D-do what you can, n-not what you caina't
You gotta make the pieces fit
If thata's what it is
Thata's what it is

Where are we going?
Why are we here?
We ask of the same questions
But the answera's never clear
Life is just a gamble
You gotta roll the dice
You gotta dance with lady luck
And if you dona't get it right
You take the hit

Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
Thata's what it is
When you get into the game
Thata's what it is, n-not what it aina't
D-do what you can, n-not what you caina't
Ita's all hit and miss
Th-thata's what it is

Thata's what it is, baby -
Take the hit!

[Guitar solo]

Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
Thata's what it is
So just learn to play the game
Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
Thata's what it is
When you get into the game
Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
Thata's what it is
When you get into the game
Thata's what it is
Things aina't never gonna change
