Worried Man Blues                                 
(Kingston Trio)                                   
                                                  
[chorus]:                                         
    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 that river, and I lay down to       
sleep. I went across that river, and I lay down   
to sleep. I went across that river, and I lay     
down to sleep. When I awoke, there were shackles  
on my feet.                                       
                                                  
[chorus]                                          
                                                  
And on each shackle were twenty-nine links of     
chain (x3). And on each link, were the initials   
of my name.                                       
                                                  
[chorus]                                          
                                                  
I asked the judge "What might be my fine?" (x3)   
"Twenty-one years on the Rocky Mountain line!"    
                                                  
[chorus]                                          
                                                  
The longest train I ever did see was a thousand   
coaches long (x3). And on that train, was my      
love and now she's gone.                          
                                                  
[chorus]                                          
                                                  
If anyone should ask you who did write this song  
(x3). It was me, and I sing it all day long.
