Putting in that overtime and coming up with nothing Sure as hell ain't for lack of tryin' There's no use wasting time in fighting for something When you see that white flag a flyin' Can you hear that whistle blow? There's all-day thinking time And all night drinking time And time to sing or time to find if Rhyme has a reason Time to pack it in and stay down Pack it up and walk away now And give it one more day or call it a season I can tell by the tears not in your eyes It's quittin' time ♪ There's something to be said for saying what needs saying A suitcase says it all to me Before the credits roll, just know I always loved you So we wrote that famous final scene Where you turn and walked out on me There's all-day thinking time And all night drinking time And time to sing or time to find if Rhyme has a reason Time to pack it in and stay down Pack it up and walk away now And give it one more day or call it a season I can tell by the tears not in your eyes It's quittin' time It's quittin' time Every start has an end Every first has a last Every now has a then Every future has a past And sometimes you want it back There's all-day thinking time And all night drinking time And time to sing or time to find if Rhyme has a reason Time to pack it in and stay down Pack it up and walk away now And give it one more day or call it a season I can tell by the tears not in your eyes It's quittin' time It's quittin' time
