Reading multiple lines from a file using getline ()

I am trying to read and then output the contents of a text file with three lines, as shown below:

Bob Dylan 10 9

John Lennon 8 7

David Bowie 6 5

For each line, I just want to output a line, i.e. firstName LastName number1 number2.

I use the following code for this:

int num1;
int num2;
string firstName;
string lastName;
string fullName; 
ifstream inFile;

inFile.open("inputFile.txt");

while (getline(inFile, firstName))
    {
        inFile >> firstName >> lastName >> num1 >> num2;

        fullName = firstName + " " + lastName;

        cout << fullName << " " << num1 << " " << num2 << endl;
    }

inFile.close();

There are two problems with getting out of this. Firstly, the first line is not displayed, although I know from experiments that she reads it. Secondly, after the last 2 lines are read and displayed (optional), the program displays everything in the last line EXCLUDES the first name (in this case, the last thing it prints is Bowie 6 5).

-, firstName , ( "" ), ? , , .

while (getline(inFile, firstName)) // reads the line
    {
        // reads the next line and overwrites firstName!
        inFile >> firstName >> lastName >> num1 >> num2;

:

while ( inFile >> firstName >> lastName >> num1 >> num2 )
{
  fullName = firstName + " " + lastName;
  cout << fullName << " " << num1 << " " << num2 << endl;
}
