Everybody's got a thing

But some don't know how to handle it

Always reachin' out in vain

Accepting the things not worth having but



Don't you worry 'bout a thing

Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama

Cause I'll be standing on the side

When you check it out



They say your style of life's a drag

And that you must go other places

But just don't you feel too bad

When you get fooled by smiling faces but



Don't you worry 'bout a thing

Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama

Cause I'll be standing on the side

When you check it out...

When you get off... your trip

Don't you worry 'bout a thing...

Don't you worry 'bout a thing...ooh



Don't you worry 'bout a thing

Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama

Cause I'll be standing on the side

When you check it out...

When you get off... your trip



Everybody needs a change

A chance to check out the new

But you're the only one to see

The changes you take yourself through but



Don't you worry 'bout a thing

Don't you worry 'bout a thing, pretty mama

Cause I'll be standing in the wings

When you check it out



Don't you worry 'bout a thing

REPEAT and FADE
