Worried Man Blues Lyrics

 

Worried Man Blues - Woody Guthrie (伍迪·格思里)/Sonny Terry

I went across the river

I lay down to sleep

I went across the river

I lay down to sleep

When I woke up

Had shackles on my feet

 

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

 

Twenty-one links

Of chain around my leg

Twenty-one links

 

Of chain around my leg

And on each link

'S an initial of my name

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 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

 

It takes a worried man to sing a worried song

Takes a worried man to sing a worried song

Worried now but I won't be worried long

 

That train pulled out

Twenty-one coaches long

That train pulled out

Twenty-one coaches long

And the woman I love

Is on that train and gone

It takes a worried man to sing a worried song

Takes a worried man to sing a worried song

Worried now but I won't be worried long

Twenty-one years

Pay my awful crime

Twenty-one years

Pay my awful crime

Tweny-one years

And I still got ninety-nine

 

It takes a worried man to sing a worried song

Takes a worried man to sing a worried song

 

Worried now but I won't be worried long
