Verse 1:

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



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
