Oh worries are about, and heavy on his gut
He feels he's being punished, for the bad things he has done
Help him Jesus, help him, send him down a sign
'cos he feel's he is getting old before his time
And he is sitting at the table, the table he has set
He is begging for the courage to redeem some self respect
Help him Jesus, help him, walk along the line
'cos he feel's he is getting old before his time
He says 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
He is worried now but he won't be worried long
He broke her heart on a warm and sunny day
