Sometimes you gotta just know when to quit . Just like the old time slugger who's bat is just a little slow Or that aging quarterback With less velocity on his throw You just keep on hoping For that one more moment In the sun To re live some of that glory When the game seemed much more fun You've given it your all Left it all out on the field But no matter how hard you try The truth has become revealed Your true and loyal fans Have turned to someone else To give them that special magic That with you they felt It's then you come to realize That maybe you should go Leave with what little pride you have left Its time to leave " the show " It's really kind sad how You've done so much for them But they'd rather look to someone else Instead of appreciate you again

Sometimes you just gotta know
Sometimes you gotta just know when to quit . Just like the old time slugger who's bat is just a little slow Or that aging quarterback With less velocity on his throw You just keep on hoping For that one more moment In the sun To re live some of that glory When the game seemed much more fun You've given it your all Left it all out on the field But no matter how hard you try The truth has become revealed Your true and loyal fans Have turned to someone else To give them that special magic That with you they felt It's then you come to realize That maybe you should go Leave with what little pride you have left Its time to leave " the show " It's really kind sad how You've done so much for them But they'd rather look to someone else Instead of appreciate you again
