I Bow Out Lyrics

Tired of playing this game 

 And I won’t play it no more 

 And I won’t take it no more 

 Through with being your fool 

 And I won’t do it no more 

 And I won’t, I won’t keep up this act 

 Not for one minute 

 I’m gonna pull, I’m gonna pull this curtain down 

 

 [Chorus:]

 This time I won’t play this game 

 I made a vow to make a change 

 And I bow out 

 I won’t be hanging around, baby 

 I decline to take the pain 

 And I resign the masquerade 

 And I bow out 

 I won’t be staying around, baby 

 I bow out 

 

 Can’t go on with the show 

 You’re just a stage I went through 

 Now you’re just fading from view, yeah baby 

 It’s time for a change of scene 

 Guess I’ll be taking my leave 

 I guess I won’t, I won’t stay in this play 

 Not for one minute 

 I’m gonna make, I’m gonna make my exit now 

 Oh baby 

 

 [Repeat Chorus]

 

 When you’re left standing on that stage all alone 

 Maybe you will realize 

 You should of learned to treat me right 

 And when this final act is finally through 

 Maybe you’ll wish you’d been 

 The kind of man you should have been 

 Now watch me say goodbye 

 And walk right out of your life 

 Oh baby, all right babe 

 

 [Repeat Chorus until fade]
