[Chorus]It takes a worried man to sing a worried songIt takes a worried man to sing a worried songIt takes a worried man to sing a worried songI'm worried now, but I won't be worried longI went across the river and I laid down to sleepI went across the river and I laid down to sleepI went across the river and I laid down to sleepWhen I woke up, I had shackles on my feetTwenty-one links of chain around my legTwenty-one links of chain around my legTwenty-one links of chain around my legAnd on each link, is initial of my name[Chorus]I asked that judge, what's gonna be my fineI asked the judge, tell me, what's gonna be my fineI asked the judge, tell me, what's gonna be my fineTwenty one years on the Rocky Mountain LineTwenty-one years to pay my awful crimeTwenty-one years to pay my awful crimeTwenty-one years to pay my awful crimeLetras de cancionesTwenty-one years and I still got ninety-nine[Chorus]If anybody ask you, "Well who made up this song?" If anybody ask you, "Well who made up this song?"If anybody ask you, "Well who made up this song?"Tell 'em t'was me and I done been here and gone[Chorus] From Letras Mania
