[Verse]

Had an old Ford Cobra with a 302 boss man sittin' under the hood

Pullin' on a cool up and down McDowell Road

Bill Lilly in the back seat rollin' down the window, hittin' every sign he could

Yellin' hurry up boys, I'm runnin' out of thing to throw


[Verse]

I was trouble on legs like a worn-out razor, cuttin' everything I touched

Cut one too many, so I figured I blaze a trail

I ran like the devil in a house on fire, but I didn't run fast enough

You can run all you want, but you can't outrun your self


[Chorus]

Let it go, what else can you do, oh

You can't hold what you can't hold, oh no

Can't stay young, gotta get old

It ain't like you ain't never been told

It don't do no good to complain about the pain you can't outgrow

Let it go


[Verse]

Time flies by like an angry girl, ain't thought about home in years

Last thing I heard booty little got drunk and died

So they all got together and they said a few words

And they covered the stones with beer

There's a hole in the ground don't never get satisfied


[Chorus]

Let it go, what else can you do, oh

You can't hold what you can't hold, oh no

Can't stay young, gotta get old

It ain't like you ain't never been told

It don't do no good to complain about the pain you can't outgrow

Let it go


[Outro]

Let it go

You only go around once

And it don't go slow like a bullet from a gun

You can't un-live where you come from you know
