THAT’S LIFE IN THE OILPATCH
Peter Tertzakian
Founder and President, Studio.Energy; Founder, ARC Energy Research Institute
For an energy veteran like me, North America’s oil industry reminds me of “That’s Life,” the classic Frank Sinatra tune.
After every oil price crash I can imagine Ol’ Blue Eyes crooning, “Each time I find myself flat on my face / I pick myself up and get back in the race.”

8 年Thanks Peter. Poignant, as always, and because you mentioned it...here's to Frank, may he rest in peace. Cheers "That's Life" That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say You're ridin' high in October, shot down in December But I know I'm gonna change that tune When I'm back on top, back on top in 2017 I said that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem Some people get their kicks stompin' 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 That's life (that's life), that's life and I can't deny it Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it But if there's nothin' shakin' come this here 2017 I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball a-and die My, my!
