Rodney Crowell - Baby, Better Start Turnin' 'em Down Lyrics

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
It ain't no way to act with feelings baby
You better start turnin' em down

'Cause 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
It ain't no way to act in public baby
You better start turnin' em down

Sure 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 trend
Burnin' money every way that you can
Speakin' of goin' for broke
That's how it is and you're lettin' it roll
That ain't no way to treat your lover
Ain't no way to act with strangers baby
You better start turnin' em down

I said baby you better start turnin' em
Baby, you better start turnin' em
Baby, you better start turnin' 'em down
