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
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.

I remember one time now way back down on the farm
My daddy had a dominiker 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
