Worried man
Worried man
I'm a very worried man
Hungry babies don't understand
Papa is a worried man
The place I used to draw my pay
Slamed the door on me today
And told me just to stay away
And don't come back again
I went back home to break the news
My woman saw that I have the blues
But she said the babies need new shoes
And I'm a worried man
Worried man
Worried man
I'm a very worried man
Hungry babies don't understand
Papa is a worried man
Well, there is no way that I can see
That I can feed my family
Cause I don't own a money tree
And very little land
But I said, "Mama, don't you cry
I'll get a job before the day's gone by"
I don't know where though and that is why
I'm a worried man
Worried man
Worried man
I'm a very worried man
Hungry babies don't understand
Papa is a worried man
Worried man
Worried man
I'm a very worried man
Hungry babies don't understand
Papa is a worried man
Worried man
Worried man
I'm a very worried man
Hungry babies don't understand
Papa is a worried man
