I'm Ahead Can Quit While I'm Behind
Jim Ford
I’m sending out invitations
Gonna have me a big celebration
Whoa-oo, I’m givin’ up everything I thought was mine
If her love, Lord, for him is stronger
Why drag this thing out much longer
I’ll be ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
I’m ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
Ain’t got much left here to hang onto
I don’t think it’s worth the changes she’s putting me through
Whoa-oo, this ole heart just don’t need to beat like that
If her love for him is stronger
Let’s not drag love out no longer
I’ll be ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
I’ll be ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
Well I’d write a song about something real funny
If I thought everybody would laugh
I’d write a song about a whole lot of money
If I thought it would bring me some cash
I’d write a song about the trip I’ve been on
I wish I’d never taken LUV
It’s got me feeling funny and doo-wee honey
It just keeps on working on me
I’m ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
I’m ahead, if I can quit while I’m behind
