Don't Quit While You're Ahead Lyricsby . From The Mystery of Edwin Drood Don't Quit While You're Ahead by Once I bet my last ten pence - and won Twice as rich then, friends said, "Call it done!" "How sad", I said. "So that's your wildest dream, eh, then... Twenty pence instead of ten?" I doubled up my bet again! In life you start the same as when you're done: If you lose, you're just where you've begun - If you've won, don't quit while you're ahead, Just press your blessed luck instead! Don't try to think what move might be best; Use the heart that beats within your breast. Never rest! Don't quit while you're ahead. Sing out: "There's more in store for me!" I see my dream ship fin'lly comin' in Like a steam ship anch'rin in to win! Lift your chin! Remember what I said Don't quit while you're ahead, let go! I know there must be love that's yet to be Only just three winks away from me Hopefully... Don't quit while you're ahead! Don't worry how you tread! Who cares? And there's the chance! One pipe dream that is mine A romance just ripe on the vine Don't resign! Neville, Crisparkle, Rosa, Helena, Alice & Beatrice: No victor ever fled! Don't quite you're ahead to stay! Ta-ray- ta-rah! Boom! Bang it, bash it, Hoo-ray-ha-rah! Boom! Clang it, clash it, oo-la-dee-dah! Don't quite while you're ahead! Don't say "I'm off to bed, farewell!" Full well I know! Don't let the moment go to waste Not with the vic'try close enough to taste! Heed the call with all due haste! For God's own sake! So raise the stake, you struck a lucky vein! Never break through any lucky chain! The refrain: "Don't quit while you're ahead," As eas'ly done as said, you'll see: Ta-rah-ta-ree! Boom! Bang it, bash it, oo, glory be! Boom! Clang it, clash it, oo-lah-dee-dee! Don't quit while you're ahead Sing out, "There's more in store for me!"
