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,

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.)
