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.
[Instrumental]
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.
[Instrumental to fade]
