I Am A Man That Worries

(album: Strictly A One-Eyed Jack - 2022)

I am a man that worries
Worries occupy my brain
I'm worried about tomorrow
I worry about today
I'm worried about the words I'm hearing
I'm worried about all this bad news
I know it's a curse
That ain't ever gonna go away

Look out for a man that worries
Step aside when I come your way
'Cause I'm a man that's worried
You better get out of my way, boy
You better get out of my way

I come across alone and silent
I come across dirty and mean
I come across dangerous and unforgiving
That's my angel's dream
'Cause I don't know what happened
That made me this way
But I ain't thinking about you
Don't worry about me, just go away

Look out for a man that's worried
Step aside when he comes your way
And I'm a man that's worried
You better get out of my way, boy
You better get out of my way

I'd like to say that I'm sorry
I'd like to say amen
I'd like to say "don't look at me"
I ain't telling you again
'Cause I'm a man that's worried
My worries are never done
I am a man that worries
You keep looking at me, you'll be struck dumb, my friend

I am a man that worries
Step aside when I come your way
'Cause I'm a man that worries
You better get out of my way, boy
Look out for a man that worries
Step aside when I set your way
'Cause I'm a man that's worried
You better get out of my way, boy
You better get out of my way
