Worried Man

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
I swam across the river and laid me down to sleep
I swam across the river and laid me down to sleep
I swam across the river and laid me down to sleep
When I woke, there were shackles on my feet
Shackles on my feet and twenty one links of chain
Shackles on my feet and twenty one links of chain
Shackles on my feet and twenty one links of chain
And every one initialled with my name
I asked the judge, What's gonna be my fine?
I asked the judge, What's gonna be my fine?
I asked the judge, What's gonna be my fine?
Twenty-one years on the Rocky Mountain Line
The train I ride is twenty-one coaches long
The train I ride is twenty-one coaches long
The train I ride is twenty-one coaches long
I'm worried now, but I won't be worried long
