Worried Man Blues Lyrics

(A.P. Carter)

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 now I lay down to sleep
I went across the river now I lay down to sleep
I went across the river now I lay down to sleep
When I woke up I had shackles on my feet.

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.

Train that I ride is fourteen coaches long
Train that I ride is fourteen coaches long
Train that I ride is fourteen coaches long
The girl I 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.

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...
