(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

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  Willie ) (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

I'm a very 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 )
