In this modern world we're livin' in the rules ain't like they've ever been
Sparkin' of spreading it thin that's what you do flashing your soul
That ain't no way to treat your lover it ain't no way to act with feelings
Baby we better start turnin' 'em down
It's a brave new wave we're roarin' in
Hanging out out on the rock and roll fringe
Speaking of running around all over town lettin' it show
That ain't no way to treat your lover it ain't no way to act in public
Baby better start turnin' 'em down
Sure is clear ain't nothin' easy anymore
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
[ guitar ]
In this latest craze or current trend burnin' money every way that you can
Speakin' of goin' 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 better start turnin' 'em down
I said baby better start turnin' 'em
Baby better start turnin' 'em
Baby better start turnin' 'em down
[ harmonica ]
