(Worried man,) (Papa is a worried man.)
(Worried man,) (Papa is a worried man.)
The place I go to draw my pay,
Closed the door on me today.
Told me just to stay away,
And don't come back again.
Ahh: I told my Mama: "Baby, don't you cry.
"I'll get a job before the day go by."
I don't know where, and that is why,
I'm a worried man. (Worried.)
Worried man, a worried man.
(Worried.) (Worried.)
I'm a very worried man.
Hungry babies don't understand,
And their Papa is a worried man.
Papa is a worried man. (Play it, Johnny,) (Yeah.)
There is no way that I can see,
That I can feed my family, (That's sad.)
I don't own a money tree:
An' I don't own no land.
Now listen: I've got muscle and I've got brains.
I don't mind the sun an' the rain.
I gotta make a little change,
As I'm a worried, worried, worried man, ooh. (Worried.)
Worried man, a worried man.
(Worried.) (Worried.)
I'm a very worried man. (Worried man.)
Hungry babies don't understand,
And their Papa is a worried man.
Their Papa is a worried man. (Take it: take it.)
(That's it, (That's it, that's it, that's it.)
(Ok, do it: go Willie.)
(Worried man, worried man.)
(Papa is a worried man.)
(Worried man, worried man.)
