Stanley Brothers Lyrics
Worried Man Blues

[Chorus:]
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 went across the river to lay me down to sleep
I went across the river to lay me down to sleep

I went across the river to lay me down to sleep
When I woke up, there were shackles on my feet

Around my feet there were twenty one links of chain
Around my feet there were twenty one links of chain
Around my feet there were twenty one links of chain
And on each link, there was engraved 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
