Life Is Just A Bowl Of Cherries

(Ray Henderson / Lew Brown)


Roy Fox and his Band

Life is just a bowl of cherries
Don't be so serious; life's too mysterious
You work, you save, you worry so
But you can't take your dough when you go, go, go

So keep repeating it's the berries
The strongest oak must fall
The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned
So how can you lose what you've never owned
Life is just a bowl of cherries
So live and laugh at it all
