Worried Man Blues (It Takes a Worried Man) |
The train that I ride is twenty one coaches long |
The train that I ride is twenty one coaches long |
The train that I ride is twenty one coaches long |
My love is on that train and gone |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
I’m worried now, but I won’t be worried long |
I went across the river and I lay down to sleep |
I went across the river and I lay down to sleep |
I went across the river and I lay down to sleep |
I woke up and I had shackles on my feet |
Twenty-nine links of chain around my leg |
Twenty-nine links of chain around my leg |
Twenty-nine links of chain around my leg |
And on each link, an initial of my name |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
I’m worried now, but I won’t be worried long |
I asked the judge, «What's gonna be my fine» |
I asked the judge, «What's gonna be my fine» |
I said, «Oh, judge, what’s gonna be my fine» |
He said, «Twenty-one years on the Rocky Mountain Line"** |
Twenty-one years to pay for my awful crime |
Twenty-one years to pay for my awful crime |
Twenty-one years to pay for my awful crime |
Twenty one years, but I still got ninety-nine |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
I’m worried now, but I won’t be worried long |
The train pulled out, sixteen coaches long |
The train pulled out, sixteen coaches long |
The train pulled out, sixteen coaches long |
The one I love, she’s on that train and gone |
I looked down the track, as far as I could see |
I looked down the track, as far as I could see |
I looked down the track, as far as I could see |
A Little bitty hand was a-wavin' back at me |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
I’m worried now, but I won’t be worried long |
If anyone asks you who composed this song |
If anyone asks you who composed this song |
If anyone asks you who composed this song |
Tell him it was I and I sing it all day long |
Oh, it takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song |
I’m worried now, but I won’t be worried long |
