(Dave Guard/Tom Glazer)
[Chorus:]
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song. [Repeat 2x]
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long.
Got myself a Cadillac, thirty dollars down. Got myself a brand new house five miles out of town.
Got myself a gal named Sue, treats me really fine. Yes, she's my baby and I love her all the time.
[Chorus]
I've been away on a business trip, travelin' all around. I've got a gal and her name is Sue, prettiest gal in town.
She sets my mind to worryin' every time I'm gone. I'll be home tonight so I won't be worried long!
[Chorus]
Well, Bobby's in the living room, holding hands with Sue. Nickie's at that big front door, 'bout to come on through.
Well, I'm here in the closet. Oh, Lord, what shall I do? We're worried now but we won't be worried long.
[Chorus]
