[Verse 1] Taking down your neighbor won't take you any higher I burned my own damn finger poking someone else's fire I've never gotten taller making someone else feel small If you ain't got nothing nice to say, don't say nothing at all [Chorus] Just hoe your own row, yeah, and raise your own babies Smoke your own smoke and grow your own daisies Mend your own fences and own your own crazy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy [Verse 2] Nobody's perfect, we've all lost and we've all lied Most of us have cheated, the rest of us have tried The holiest of holies even slip from time to time We've all got dirty laundry hanging on the line [Chorus] Just hoe your own row, yeah, and raise your own babies Smoke your own smoke and grow your own daisies Mend your own fences and own your own crazy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy [Bridge] Pouring salt in my sugar won't make yours any sweeter Pissing in my yard ain't gonna make yours any greener And I wouldn't know about the rocks in your shoes So I'll just do me and, honey, you can just do you [Chorus] Just hoe your own row, yeah, and raise your own babies Smoke your own smoke and grow your own daisies Mend your own fences and own your own crazy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy Mind your own biscuits and life will be gravy
