Worries

Well now some folks drink, some folks gamble...

But my baby?

She worries.

She worries if the coffee's strong enough

She worries if the truck might stall

She worries if the kids forgot their lunch

Or if it's gonna rain at all

She worries 'bout the dog next door

And the groceries getting high

She worries if I drive too fast

Or if I blink too slow when I drive

She worries in the morning

She worries late at night

If worry was a job, boys

She'd be working overtime

But I know why she does it

And Lord, I'll tell you this

A heart that big can't help itself

It just loves like this

Yeah she worries, worries, worries all the time

But that worried little heart belongs to mine

She worries 'bout my cholesterol

And the beer I had last night

She worries if my boots are worn

And if the porch light's burning bright

She worries 'bout her mama's health

And her sister down the road

She worries if the world's gone crazy

Or if the winter's coming cold

She worries in the morning

She worries late at night

If worry was a job, boys

She'd be working overtime

But I know why she does it

And Lord, I'll tell you this

A heart that big can't help itself

It just loves like this

Yeah she worries, worries, worries all the time

But that worried little heart belongs to mine

Sometimes I wish she'd slow it down

Let that busy mind unwind

But if she ever stopped worrying

I'd know something ain't right

ause every little worry

Is just love in disguise

That's the way she keeps this world

From fallin' off its line

She worries in the morning

She worries late at night

If worry was a job, boys

She'd be working overtime
