Worry, worry, worry, love is passing me by.
Worry, worry, worry, I'm so painfully shy.
Other gals get all the kisses,
Why am I the one who misses?
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me!

Baby, baby, baby, I'm a fool about love.
Maybe, maybe I should go to school about love.
When it comes to gettin' chummy,
I'll admit I'm quite a dummy,
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me!

I found out that I'm the worryin' kind,
I go worryin' right along.
Life is fine but with a worryin' mind,
So many things can go wrong!

Worry, worry, worry, should I hold him so tight?
Worry, worry, worry, am I kissin' him right?
He said, "Sue let's share a dwellin'!",
I'm not Sue my name is Helen!
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me!

Baby, baby, I'm a fool about love.
Maybe baby I should go to school about love.
When it comes to gettin' chummy,
I'm an awful dummy,
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me!

I found out that I'm the worryin' kind,
I go worryin' right along.
Life is fine but with a worryin' mind,
So many things can go wrong!

Worry, worry, worry, should I hold him so tight?
Worry, worry, worry, am I kissin' him right?
"Sue let's share a dwellin'!",
I'm not Sue my name is Helen!
Worry, worry, worry, woe is me,
Woe-oh-oh is me!
