Let It Alone

D A D

[Verse 1]
          D
While the traveling through this big iron world
          G             D
It'll sometimes ask of you
     D
To give advice at certain times
       E               A
And tell folks what to do
       D
Well, at this time, I'm gonna tell you
  G                 D
What's the wisest plan
         E
When it comes to mixing in with things
                          A   N.C.
That you just don't understand, hmm

[Chorus]
 D
Let it alone, let it alone
        G                D
If it don't concern you, let it alone
  E
Don't go around putting on airs
                         A
And meddling in other folks' affairs
         D
If you don't know, say so
                            A      D
Mind your own business and let it alone

[Verse 2]
          D
Well, you see two people fighting
       G             D
Them man and woman, say
      D
You think that it's a crime for them
    E             A
To carry on that way
            D
Well, you think that you could stop that row
      G               D
But just as you draw nigh
      E
The lady with the poker
                                 A  N.C.
Strikes the gentleman across the eye

[Chorus]
D
Let it alone, let it alone
        G                  D
If it don't concern you, let it alone
      E
They know their business, all right, all right
        E                    A
They practice that way every night
          D
If you go buttin' in, they'll break your chin
                                A     D
So mind your own business and let it alone

[Verse 3]
           D
Well, you say that love's against you
    G              D
And on your weary way
        D
Well, lying in the gutter
     E               A
A drunken man, we'll say
       D
He's lying in the gutter
             G                  D
And you can tell that he's all in
     E
But on his necktie plainly gleams
                     A N.C.
A great big diamond pin

[Chorus]
D
Let it alone, let it alone
     G                D
He's not your pal, so let it alone
     E
The man is drunk, it may be true
                                A  N.C.
But the diamond don't belong to you
    D
So shut your eyes and eat some sighs
                               A     D
Turn around and beat it and leave it alone
