Better Left Alone Lyrics by Wade Bowen

There’s an old man on the corner
Talkin’ to himself
There’s a whiskey bottle dusty
Way up on high there on the shelf
There’s a wailing, wild-ass woman
Bitchin’ on her telephone
Some things are better left alone

There’s poison ivy bloomin’, boy
You better pull up your socks
There’s an ambulance-chasin’ TV lawyer
Barking on the box
There’s a crazy-eyed Rottweiler gnawing down a bone
Son, some things are better left alone

Watch where you’re goin’
Watch what you do
And always be careful who you say I love you to
Curiosity killed the kitty cat
Shoulda just minded his own
Some things are better left alone

You’re gonna sure find trouble
If trouble’s what you seek
There’s snakes in the grass
Don’t pick the apple from the tree
There’s a big old hive of buzzin’ bees swarming that honeycomb
Son, some things are better left alone

Watch where you’re goin’
Watch what you do
And always be careful who you say I love you to
Curiosity killed the kitty cat
Shoulda just minded his own
Some things are better left alone

Don’t ask why
Just walk on by

Well, watch where you’re goin’
Watch what you do
And always be careful who you say I love you to
Curiosity killed the kitty cat
Shoulda just minded his own
Some things are better left alone

Some things are better left alone
