I'M A WORRIED MAN

WRITERS JOHNNY CASH, JUNE CARTER CASH



(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.

(Worried.) (Worried.) 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,

=Johnny,) (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.

(Worried.) (Worried.) I'm a very worried man.

(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.)
