lyrics:
Keep it simple stupid.
You’ve gotta learn to trust your gut
Or you’ll figure out
How to really screw a good thing up Like when I re-recorded
Half my early catalog
It sounded commercial
Wound up pissin’ my core fan base off But it wasn’t my intention
Hell I thought it made a lot of sense Go back and try again
Add a few more instruments
Turned out to be a shit show And I got to be the star
That record was a big flop And it nearly broke my heart
But I learned my lesson
I learned my lesson well
I learned my lesson
Quit second guessing myself
I learned my lesson
Sometimes there ain’t nothing wrong
With leaving well enough alone
Leaving well enough alone
Don’t be too insecure
I think its the root of my distress
Never felt good enough
Even when I’s at my best
Like when I played the Opry
Some people said I stole the show
All I remember’s
Steppin’ on that man’s guitar solo
I never heard a compliment
Without some asshole in my head
Putting me down
Telling me I’ll never be worth a shit
I got tired of bein’ picked on
So I punched him in the mouth
i’m still a long way from perfect
But he’s nicer to me now
Yeah I learned my lesson
I learned my lesson well
I learned my lesson
Now I ain’t so hard on myself
I learned my lesson
Sometimes there ain’t nothing wrong
With leaving well enough alone
I’ve seen my expectations
Go higher than I could climb
And damn it hurt
To watch ‘em spiral in a steep nose dive
Like when that record man said
“Son you ain’t go what it takes
This business ain’t got much to do
With how you sound these days
You aint got the jaw line or the biceps
You don’t feel out your jeans
And worst of all
You wanna hog all of the publishing”
I wasted a bunch o’ years
Trying to prove that bastard wrong
But he was telling me the truth
I kind of knew it all along
But I learned my lesson
I learned my lesson well
I learned my lesson
Quit second guessing myself
I learned my lesson
Sometimes their ain’t nothing wrong
With leaving well enough alone
Leaving well enough alone
Leaving well enough alone
