Lyric Quit While You re Behind
(will birch/phil mitchell)
You had a reputation
Talk can be so unkind
You loved above your station
It messed up your mind
Take this information
And quit while you re behind
Kicked out of his bed
Now you might go blind
His line is dead
And your face is lined
You ll only get ahead
If you quit while you re behind
You got to get out while you can and run
You got to pay the price, once you ve had your fun
Once you ve had your fun yeah
- harmonica break -
You lost your inhibitions
Now they re hard to find
You made the late editions
In the daily grind
Forget your superstitions
And quit while you re behind
You had a reputation
Talk can be so unkind
You loved above your station
It messed up your mind
Take this information
And quit while you re behind
Kicked out of his bed
Now you might go blind
His line is dead
And your face is lined
You ll only get ahead
If you quit while you re behind
You got to get out while you can and run
You got to pay the price, once you ve had your fun
Once you ve had your fun yeah
- harmonica break -
You lost your inhibitions
Now they re hard to find
You made the late editions
In the daily grind
Forget your superstitions
And quit while you re behind
