[Verse 1]
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, when you're flashing your soul
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act with feelings
Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down

[Verse 2]
Is it the brave new wave we're roarin' in?
Hanging out, out on the rock'n'roll fringe
Speaking of running around
All over town and lettin' it show
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act in public
Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down
Start to turnin' 'em down

[Bridge]
Sure is clear ain't nothin' easy any more
Sure gets cloudy when I look in all directions
Sure is raining like this feeling in my heart
Sure is crazy how you're acting

[Fiddle Solo]
[Verse 3]
Well this latest craze or current trend
Burnin' money every way that you can
Speakin' of goin' for broke
That's how it is when you're lettin' them roll
That ain't no way to treat your lover
It ain't no way to act with strangers
Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down
I said, baby, we better start turnin' 'em
Baby, we better start turnin' 'em
Baby, we better start turnin' 'em down
