I Bow Out Lyrics


Tired of playin' this game
And I won't play it no more
And I won't take it no more, ahh
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, no
This time I won't play this game
I made a vow to make a change and
I bow out
(Huu)
(I won't be hangin' around baby)
I decline to take the pain and
I resign the masquerade and
I bow out
(Ahh)
(I won't be stayin' around baby)

I bow out
(I)
(I bow)
(Woo)
Can't go on with the show
You're just a stage I went through
Now you're just fadin' from view, yeah
It's time for a change of scene
Guess I'll be takin' 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
This time I won't play this game
(This time I won't)
I made a vow to make a change and
(I made a vow)
I bow out
(I)
(I won't be hangin' around baby)
I decline to take the pain
(I decline)
I resign the masquerade and
(Oh yeah)
I bow out
(I won't be stayin' around baby)
I bow out
(Oh, oh, oh, ooh)
When you're left standin' on that stage all alone
Maybe you'll realize
You should have 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 rightout of your life
Oh baby, alright baby
This time I won't play this game
(This time)
I made a vow to make a change and
(This time I made up my mind)
I bow out
(I)
(I bow)
(I won't be hangin' around baby)
I decline to take the pain and
(I decline boy)
I resign the masquerade and
(No masquerade)
I bow out
(Gonna bow out)
(I won't be stayin' around baby)
This time I won't play this game
I made a vow to make a change and
(Yeah ooh)
I bow out
(Said I)
(Gonna, I gonna bow out)
(Did you belive that?)
I decline to take the pain and
(Haa eee my)
I resign the masquerade and
(Haa eee you will be there)
I bow out
(Hmm)
(I won't be stayin' around baby)
This time I won't play this game
I made a vow to make a change and
(Yeah boo)
I bow out
(I)
(I bow)
(Ooh baby I bow out)
I decline to take the pain and
(I better, I bow out)
I resign the masquerade and
I bow out

Whitney Houston (born on August 9, 1963 in Newark, New Jersey, death announced February 11, 2012 in Los Angeles, California) was a Grammy and Emmy Award winning American R&B/pop singer, actress, former fashion model, record and movie producer. Whitney Houston is one of pop music's best-selling music artists of all-time, with more than 200 million combined albums, singles, and videos sold worldwide. She was known for her soulful dramatic mezzo-soprano voice, vocal power, range and melismatic skill. She was labeled the "Queen of Songs" by Arsenio Hall, who described her as "the first lady of song". She was also known to millions as "The Voice", a nickname given to her by Oprah Winfrey. Also known as the "Queen of Pop/Soul", or soulful-pop music.

Whitney's debut album was released in 1985 to critical and commercial international success, and she went on to release seven consecutive number-one hits on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart. She was one of a handful of African-American artists who received heavy-rotation on MTV during the network's early years in the 1980s.

Houston continued her success into the 1990s with the release of several films and their corresponding soundtrack albums, the most popular of which was The Bodyguard (1992), which produced the worldwide number-one hit single I Will Always Love You. According to the I Will Always Love You Songfacts, it stayed at US #1 for 14 weeks, which was a record at the time and for a while was second to "We Are The World" as the biggest-selling single ever. Houston's albums in the 2000s have been less successful.

Her personal life became the subject of controversy because of allegations of drug abuse, especially after repeated cancellations of public appearances and erratic behaviour.

In mid 2009, Houston released her seventh and final studio album, "I Look To You." The album debut at #1 on the Billboard 200. It became another Platinum seller. It was state in the UK Newspaper "The Mirror" that Houston is thinking about recording her eighth studio album.

Her death was announced by her publicist on February 11, 2012.
