High Time Quit Lowdown Ways

Well, I'm sick and tired of wakin' up sick and tired
As of today there's gonna be some changes made
Well, you might as well keep your feet on the ground
'Cause I won't stand still for your movin' around
It's high time you quit your lowdown ways
Verse 2:
Anything to the talk I hear over town?
Is it really true, girl, that you go on the deck up and down?
Now, the word as well as I can recall:
Everywhere you've been, you've been the belle of the ball
It's high time you quit your lowdown ways
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)
Verse 3:
I remember one time, now, way back down on the farm
My daddy had a Dominaker hen, but she wouldn't stay home
Well now, she could fly higher than a jet airplane
But not after Daddy clipped her little ol' wings
It's high time you quit your lowdown ways
(instrumental, same pattern as verses; repeat and fade)
