Leave It Alone
by Swanee River Boys

Album: I'm Building A Bridge

Intro:
Leave it alone, leave it alone,
Mind God, man, you better leave it alone,
When the great God almighty says somethings wrong
Ya better mind God, brother, and
Leave it alone, leave it alone,
I said, leave it alone

1. Well, listen to me all you sinners and saints,
You better take another look at your cans and can'ts
All the things you can do, the things you can say
If you come up winning on the judgement day
You better not forget what the Bible says
About a beautiful damsel that decked her head
And when a young man come a walking by
She stopped him in his tracks and she winked her eye,
Said, "My husband's gone, I'm all alone
Won't you come on in and make yourself to home."
Well, listen to me, man, you better walk on by, if you want to hear the angels sing

Chorus:
Leave it alone, leave it alone,
Mind God, man you better leave it alone,
When the great God almighty says somethings wrong,
You better mind God, brother, and leave it alone, leave it alone, I said leave it alone,

2. Well, God said Job was a perfect man, so
He turned him over to the devil's hand
Cause the devil had boasted to God and said I
Can cause ole Job to cuss you and die
Well, ole Job got sick, went to bed
He got sore all over from his foot to head
And his wife walked in, began to cry,
Said, Job, why don't you cuss your God and die?
Well, ole Job looked up, began to pray,
He said, My Lord gives and He can take away
No, no, I'll never cuss the Lord, cause
I want to hear the angels sing.

Chorus #2:
Leave me alone, leave me alone,
Shut up woman and leave me alone
Cause the great God almighty says cussin's wrong, so
Shut up woman and leave me alone
Leave me alone
I said, shut up woman and
Leave me alone . . .
