Worried Man

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 Oh he broke her heart on a warm and sunny day When she heard what he had to say All that sun soon went away He broke her heart on a cold and windy day 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 And so he moves towards his sweet redeeming light Shadows cast but none obscure his sight And they wonder where he is going While he is knelt before her throat Refusing to go down without a fight 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
