It Takes A Worried Man

Oh it takes a worried man, sing a worried song
Takes a worried man, come sing a little worried song
Well it takes a worried man to sing a worried song
Im worried now, wont be worried long
I went down to the riverside and I laid me down to sleep
Went down to the riverside, laid me down to sleep, lord
A-well I went down to the riverside, laid me down to sleep
When I woke up there were shackles on both-a my feet
Hit it!
(chorus)
It takes a worried man, to sing a worried song
It takes a worried man (come) to sing a worried song
Yeah, it takes a worried man, yeah, to sing a worried song
Im worried now but I wont be worried long
Worry for me!
(instrumental)
I said, judge (judge) judge, whats a-gonna be my fine?
I said, judge (judge) judge (judge) tell me whats gonna be my fine?
I said, judge (judge) judge (judge) tell me whats gonna be my fine?
He said, twenty-one years (oh) on that old rock island line

Fearless

Everyday of her life, shes been living in a fantasy world
Chasing her dreams, so close she could scream
Inside shes just a little lost girl
When shes hot for action, she knows the right place, yeah
But shes ready for trouble, she just cant wait, no, look at her face
You know shes...
Chorus:
Fearless, fearless - dancing on the tables
Fearless, fearless - tearin up the floor
Fearless, fearless - the girl is such a rebel
Shes so hot, I cant take anymore
Oh no, shes so fearless
In the middle of the night, you know that sometimes shes gonna show
Never bothers to knock, cos baby ready or not
You know shell find somewhere to go
Dont ever stop her dancing or get in her way, yeah
You know shes heading for trouble, the girls a disgrace, look at her face
You know shes...
Chorus:
Fearless, fearless - dancing on the tables

Negotiate The Works

Worriless, one walks down a road.
With worry, one climbs down the cliff.
Worry comes in expecting a fall.
Worry comes in fearing a fall.
One thinks of fall rather than
Negotiates his steps there.
Fear takes away one's attention
From the task one is going through
And diverts it to worrying.

Fears of a teenage mafioso

Fear of love,
Fear of pain,
Fear of the unforgiving cane,
Fear of lies,
Fear of sighs,
Fear of those distraught eyes,
Fear for the unknown,
Fear for the known,
Fear of everything combined,
Fear is what makes me blind,
Fear is what makes me think,
and act in blind accordance,
Hindering the world around me,
Hence, My Fear of myself
Fear is when you run away,
Fear is when you’re scared to love someone,
Fear is when the sky turns grey,
Fear of confusion,
Fear is like a dark blue ocean,
Fear won’t let me escape

We Are Worried

We are worried
Our once prosperous land
Is now a beggar

We are worried
Our incandescent light
Is now blurred

We are worried
Love no longer co-habits
On our wide streets

We are worried
That brothers slaughter brothers
All in the name of God

We are worried
How vultures prey
On our commonwealth

Losing Life to Fear

In fear of being heard,

In fear of being understood,

In fear of not being heard,

In fear of not being understood,

In fear of being misheard,

In fear of being misunderstood,

In fear of hearing too much,

In fear of understanding too much,

I'm a bit of a worrier, to an extreme. I'll crack a joke, then worry if I've offended someone - even when they're laughing. I have a guilt complex, always worrying.

Be fearless

Fearless has got
Right to live
Fearful one
should perish.

Fear more distressing
Fear more disparaging.
Be fearless and win heaven
Be fearless and enjoy sovereignty

Most libertarians are worried about government but not worried about business. I think we need to be worrying about business in exactly the same way we are worrying about government.

The Fear Of Fear

Fear is not what I am afraid of.
True, it is a frightful thing to fear;
But the fear of fearing fear is overwhelming
Especially when its form becomes sheer

Fear is like losing a tree of shade on a bristling day
Or losing your breath when you fall below the sea;
I fear this fear of fearing these fears
And it is this fear that is part and parcel of me.

Fear is like loving without being loved back,
Fear is like leaving without being left;
And the fear of loving and leaving and being loved and being left
Is opposed by the fear of not fearing anything
And being an empty vase, noisy and bereft

I fear not death nor do I fear life,
But I fear the fear of both as my peers;
If I could release one fear from my fears
It would be the fear of fearing these fears.

I was worried about my mom more than I was worried about the president. And then I was worried about the president, and then I was worried about myself.

Im Not Worried At All

All round me burdens
Seem to fall
Im not worried at all
Im not worried at all
I dont worry
All day long
All round me burdens
Seem to fall
Im not worried at all
Im not worried at all
Just Im not evil
I just can not see
He told me to pray
Just for me
All round me burdens
Seem to fall
Im not worried at all
Im not worried at all

Needless To Worry

I’ve almost spent my days
In worrying on things along my way.

I’m worried about my husband
What if he finds someone?
I’m worried about my daughter
Can she pursue her career?

I’m worried about my eldest son
What if he encounters a troublesome?
I’m worried about my youngest
Can he cope with his classmates?

I’m worried about money.
I’m so concerned about the health of the family.
I think of the weather and calamity.
Too much to say I’m afraid of the disaster.
This is really true all of these I’ve encountered.

Not now that I’ve been closer to Jesus.

There is a great difference between worry and concern. A worried person sees a problem, and a concerned person solves a problem.

The Birds and The Worrier

it is raining and as usual
the worrier is worried about the birds

they have no house of their own
and they may die in the cold she says

unknown to her the birds are happier
flying in the rain
chirping and catching all the prey
that are too worried
about where to stay

Fear is...

Fear is stormy weather
Fear is light as a feather
Fear is rain
Fear is pain
Fear is hiding in the dark
Fear is lingering at the park
Fear is not your friend
Fear is hard to comprehend
Fear is not knowing what to do
Fear is what ever he wants to
Fear is turning out the lights
Fear is having no sight
Fear is going to give you a thrill
Fear is also going to make you kill
Fear is never fun
Fear is going to make you run
Fear is that scary little voice
Fear is going to give you no other choice
Fear is losing someone
Fear is like a loaded gun

To me, 'Fearless' is not the absense of fear. It's not being completely unafraid. To me, 'Fearless' is having fears. 'Fearless' is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, 'Fearless' is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.
