Quit While You're Behind - Dr Feelgood

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
