Old Crow Medicine Show - Let It Alone Lyrics

While traveling through this big eyed world
It'll sometimes ask of you
To give advice at certain times
And tell folks what to do

Well, at this time I'm gonna tell you
What's the wisest plan
When it comes to mixing in with things
That you just don't understand

Let it alone, let it alone
If it don't concern you let it alone
Don't go around putting on heirs
And meddling in other folks affairs

If you don't know
Say so
Mind your own business
And let it alone

Well, you see two people fighting
A man and woman say
You think that it's a crime for them
To carry on that way

Well, you think that you could stop that route
But just as you draw near
The lady with the poker
Strikes the gentleman across the eye

Let it alone, let it alone
If it don't concern you, let it alone
They know their business alright, alright
They practice that way every night

There's no buttin' in
They'll break your chin
So mind your own business
And let it alone

Well, you say that love's against you
And on your weary way
Well, lying in the gutter
A drunken man will say

He's lying in the gutter
And you can tell that he's all in
But on his necktie plainly gleams
A great big diamond pin

Let it alone, let it alone
He's not your pal so let it alone
The man is drunk, it may be true
But the diamond don't belong to you

So shut your eyes
And ease some sighs
Turn around and beat it
And leave it alone
