Van Morrison: Worried Man Blues

Train I ride is twenty one coaches long
Train I ride twenty one coaches long
Train I ride twenty one coaches long
One I love is on that train and gone

And it takes a worried man to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man to sing a worried song
Takes a worried man sing a worried song
I'm worried now but I won't be worried long

Around my ankles twenty one links of chain
Around my ankles twenty one links of chain
Around my ankles twenty one links of chain
On each one there's engraved my name

Well 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, baby, but I won't be worried long

Train I ride is twenty one coaches long
Train that I ride is twenty one coaches long
Train that I ride twenty one coaches long
The one I love is on that train and gone

Well I went across the river and I laid me down to sleep
I went across the river and I laid me down to sleep
Went across the river laid me down to sleep
When I woke up there was shackles on my feet

Well 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

Well I went across the river and I laid me down to sleep
I went across that river and I laid me down to sleep
I went, I went, I went across the river laid me down to sleep
When I woke, when I woke up there was shackles on my feet

Train that I ride is twenty one coaches long
Train that I ride is twenty one coaches long
Train that I ride twenty one coaches long
Baby, I'm gonna be on that train and gone

Well 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
(One more time)

Well 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
