I Quit Lyrics by Ayla Brown

Forward

2006

[Verse 1]
There was a time when I would go walking backwards
'Round the world if you said you're mine
And I'd run blindfold through the Back Bay Monday morning
If you'd just for once arrive on time

[Pre-Chorus 1]
But you turned into another liar
And you came on like a new Messiah
So before you say what you desire
I'm tellin' you now

[Chorus]
I quit, I quit
'Cause lovin' you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situation's vacant for me
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work

[Verse 2]
I got my hands dirty while you rolled on by
With one eye on the time
I've tried my hardest, I've been conscientious
But I'm takin' back that heart of mine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You can't roll me 'round your tongue no more, baby
It's time to clear up your emotional debris
And if I'm falling overboard
Please don't save me
'Cause I'm telling you now

[Chorus]
I quit, I quit
'Cause lovin' you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situation's vacant for me
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work

[Bridge]
(Baby) Da-da-da-da-da, yeah (Baby)
Da-da-da-da-da, yeah
Da-da-da-da-da
It's too late to say you're sorry

[Pre-Chorus 3]
You're just like every lover
A shot rings out and you go runnin' for cover
And I'm so sorry that I can't be your mother
And I'm telling you now

[Chorus]
I quit, I quit
'Cause lovin' you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situation's vacant for me
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work no more

[Outro]
I quit, I quit (Da-da-da-da-da)
I quit, I quit (Da-da-da-da-da)
I quit, I quit (Da-da-da-da-da)
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work no more
Ain't gonna go to work
