 (banjo intro)

 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

 Got myself a Cadillac thirty dollars down
 Got myself a brand new house five miles out of town
 Got myself a gal named Sue treats me really fine
 Yes, she's my baby and I love her all the time

 It takes a worried worried man to sing a worried worried song
 It takes a worried worried man to sing a worried worried song
 It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
 I'm worried now but I won't be worried long

 I've been away on a business trip travelin' all around
 I got a gal and her name is Sue, prettiest gal in town
 She sets my mind to worryin' every time I'm gone
 I'll be home tonight so I won't be worried long

 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

 Well *Bob* is in the livin' room holdin' hands with Sue
 *Nicky's* at that big front door vowin'; to come on through
 Well I'm here in the closet, oh lord what shall I do
 We're worried now but we won't be worried long

 It takes a worried man to sing a worried song, oh yes
 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

 *apparently sung by lead Dave Guard referring to other Trio members Bob Shane
 and Nick Reynolds
