Emmylou Harris Baby Better Start Turnin Em Down lyrics

(Rodney Crowell)

In this modern world we`re livin`
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, don`t better start turnin` em down, start to turnin` 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 lettin` it slow
That ain`t no way to treat your lover
Ain`t no way to act with strangers
Baby, you`d better start turnin` em down, start to turnin` down

Baby, better start turnin`
Baby, better start turnin` `em down
Baby, better start turnin`
