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      This train I ride is twenty-one coaches long   Yeah this train I ride is twenty-one coaches long   This train I ride is twenty-one coaches long   The one I love she's on that train and gone   It takes a worried man...      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 gonna me down to sleep   I woke up and I had shackles on my feet   It takes a worried man...   [ guitar ]   I asked the judge what's gonna be my fine I asked the judge what's gonna be my fine   I said old judge what's gonna be my fine twenty-one days on the Rocky Island Line   It takes a worried man...
