Lyrics:

“I’m A Worried Man”
(feat. Toots Hibbert)

Worried man worried man I’m a weary worried man
Hungry babies don’t understand papa is a worried man

The place I used to draw my pay slammed the door on me today
And told me just to stay away and no come back again
I went back home to bring the news my woman saw that I had the blues
But she said the babies need new shoes and I’m a worried man

Worried man worried man…

[Guitar]

Well there is no way that I can see that I can feed my family
Cause I don’t own no money tree and very little lam
But I said mama don’t you cry I’ll get a job up fore the day’s gone by
I don’t know where though and that is why I’m a worried man

Worried man worried man…
Worried man worried man…
