Leave Well Enough Alone Lyrics

Go where the wind may blow today, tomorrow, and before

Take what you get, don't get upset, but make it off the floor

Wake up and stop your yawning, life's a lot like life you blame

A new tomorrow's dawning yeah but you still feel the same

It's better when it is or maybe better when it's not

Make with what you can with what you got and not with not

Leave well enough alone it's said

It's fine the way it was

Ain't broke don't mix

And try and fix

Won't work, it never does

Leave well enough alone I'm sure

Best line I ever heard

Why chance a glance

Or ask a dance

Be better not disturb

Cleaning my soul in the rain of truth and washing off my dreams

Filling the hole that's left behind from other people's schemes

Getting what's been given, what's a sacrifice to keep

Betting you'll be winning and entice however deep

Live with what's been thrown at you and spew it right back out

The truth ain't really true at all in case you had a doubt

Chickens coming home to roost, they mock me as they do

Thicken plots, conspiring shades of cauldrons all a brew

Cabbage kings and baggage brings the world right to your door

The knight he sings and swings his rings and strings of tales of yore

I've played this tune around and round and round till I fell down

The merry-go-round a-tumbling down and left a broken crown

How to say what can't be said to those who won't abide

To get across the raging rapids, swirling, rising tide

An ocean shifting, shining bright but torrent down below

Of words and rhymes and stories told retold for we don't know

Explain, complain, and ride that train from Tupelo to Leeds

Refrain again and once again who knows where this train leads
