Lyrics:

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 the river laid me down to sleep

I went across the river laidme down to sleep

I went across the river laidme down to sleep

When I woke up I had shackles on my feet

Don't you know it takes a worried man...



I asked that judge what's gonna be my fine

I asked that judge what's gonna be my fine

I asked that judge what's gonna be my fine

Twenty one years on the Rocky Mountain Line

Oh it takes a worried man...



Well the train I ride it's twenty one coaches long

The train I ride is twenty one coaches long

The train I ride is twenty one coaches long

The woman I love she's on that train and gone

Oh it takes a worried man...

I'm worried now but I won't be worried long
