Baby, Better Start Turnin' Em Down

(Rodney Crowell)
 In this modern world we're livin' in
 The rules ain't like they've ever been
 Speakin' of spreading it thin
 That's what you do, flashing your soul
 That ain't no way to treat your lover
 Ain't no way to act with feelings
 Baby, better start turnin' 'em down
 Now it's a brave new wave we're roarin' in
 Hanging out, out on the rock'n'roll fringe
 Speaking of running around
 All over town, lettin' it show
 That ain't no way to treat your lover
 Ain't no way to act in public
 Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down
 Start to sturnin' down
 Sire is clear ain't nothin' easy any more
 Sure gets cloudy when I look in all directions
 Sure is rainin' like this feeling in my heart
 Sure is crazy how you're acting
 In this latest craze or current trent
 Burnin' money every way that you can
 Speakin' of going for broke
 That's how it is and lettin' it show
 That ain't no way to treat your lover
 Ain't no way to act with strangers
 Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down
 Start to turnin' down
 Baby, better start turnin'
 Baby, better start turnin'
 Baby, better start turnin' 'em down
