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.
Got Myself a Cadillac, Thirty dollars down;
Got myself a brand new house Five miles out of town;
Got myself a gal names Sue, Treats me really fine.
Yes, she's my baby And I love her all the time.

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've been away on a bus'ness trip, Travlin' all around
I've got a gal and her name is Sue, Prettiest gal in town.
She sets my mind to worryin' Ev'ry time I'm gone.
I'll be home tonight So I won't be worried long.

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, Bobby's in the living room, Holding hands with Sue
Nickie's at that big front door, Bout to come on thru.
I'm here in the closet. Oh, Lord what shall I do?
We're worried now. But we won't be worried long.

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.

    General CommentThis song was recorded for Neil Young's movie "Human Highway." Devo play a group of nuclear technicians who practice this song for a talent show.

    General CommentThis song is about being more cautious in every day life, the (booji boy speaks) part which is not listed here is the most important part of the cover and a dead give away about what the song is about.
