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
