A southern term that means "You can't do everything perfectly, focus on the most important things, and put the rest of it out of your mind."
You might say this to someone who is putting too much time or effort into planning unimportant details of something.

Another variation of this phrase is "Let the Rough Side Drag", which means the same thing.
