Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries

"Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries" is a popular song with music by Ray Henderson and lyrics by Buddy G. DeSylva and Lew Brown, published in 1931[1]. The song was revived in 1953 by singer Jaye P. Morgan.[2]

The song title gave rise to the revue of composer Ray Henderson's music called It's the Cherries, which launched the American Composer Series in 2000.[3]
