There was a time when I would go walking
Backwards round the world
If you said you're mine
Now I'd run blindfolded down the highway Monday morning
If you just for once arrived on time
But you turned into another liar
And you do whatever you desire
So before you tell me that I'm fired
I'm telling you now

Chorus
I quit, I quit
Cause loving you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situations 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

I got my hands dirty while you rolled cigarettes
With one eye on the time
I tried my hardest
I've been conscientious
But I'm taking back that heart of mine
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 loving you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situations 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
It's to late to say you're sorry
You're just like every other lover
A shot rings out and you go running for cover
And I'm so sorry but I'm not your mother
I'm telling you now

I quit, I quit
Cause loving you's a job I don't need
Ain't gonna go to work no more
I quit, I quit
The situations 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
I quit, I quit
I quit, I quit
I quit, I quit
Ain't gonna go to work no more
