Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries - Carmen McRae

Don’t take it serious

Life’s too mysterious

You work, you save, you worry so

But you can’t take your dough

When you go, go, go

Keep repeating, it’s the berries

The strongest oak must fall

The best things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you never owned

So live and laugh at it all

Keep repeating, it’s the berries

You know the strongest oak has got to fall

The sweet things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you never owned

So live it, love it, wriggle your ears

And think nothing of it, you can’t do without it

There’s no two ways about it

You live and you laugh at it all
