An old mans name is Johnson

He had a mansion on a hill

A brand new car, a lumberyard

And a big ol'stack of bills

Folks around these parks say he could buy the whole damn town

But all the money in the world

Wont help poor Amos now



Work and worry

Work and worry

Yeah old man Johnson done checked out early

He spent all his time on work and worry

Work and worry

Work and worry

Yeah if you wanna leave this world in a hurry

Spend all your time on work and worry



Why can't you take it easy man

You work hard all your life

Still got time to go wait in line

Gettin to know your wife

You can pick that shovel

Till you draw your final breath

We'll make sure your tombstone reads:

"He worked himself to death"



Work and worry

Work and worry

It made your hair fall out

And your eyes get blurry

When ya cuss, you fret, and worry

Work and worry

Work and worry

Yeah if you wanna leave this world in a hurry

Spend all your time on work and worry



Everybody now!



You've seen them come and go

I think by now you'd know

Why can't you get it through your head

That stuff will kill you graveyard dead



Work and worry

Work and worry

Yeah old man Johnson done checked out early

Spent all his time on work and worry

Work and worry

Work and worry

Made your hair fall out and eyes get blurry

And ya cuss, and fret and work and worry



Work and worry

Work and worry

If ya wanna...



Oh yeah!
