| 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 |
