Leave Well Enough Alone - The Robert Cray Band

If you lose

It’s because you showed your hand

Somebody called your bluff

I guess you didn’t understand

I thought you learned your lesson

It’s time for you to go home

Cause you don’t know how

You don’t know how to leave well enough alone

Crowded rooms

That’s where you make your stand

Talking loud and jivin'

Trying to take the upper hand

I feel sorry for you, buddy

No one’s pickin' up the phone

Cause you don’t know how

You don’t know how to leave well enough alone

Don’t know how to do it, man

(Guitar solo)

On your own

That’s where you’ve always been

Cause you’re way too short on patience

Trying to hard to get ahead

You’d think you know by now, man

The game you’re playin' has gone cold

Cause you don’t know how

You don’t know how to leave well enough alone

Hey

Don’t know how to do it, man

(Guitar outro)
