Everybody's got a thing
But some don't know how to handle it
Always reachin' out in vain
Acceptin' the things not worth having

They say your style of life's a drag
And that you must go other places
But just don't you fell too bad
When you get fooled by the smilin' faces

CHORUS 1:
But don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing mama
'Cause I'll be standin' in the wings
When you check it out

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

CHORUS 2:
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing uh uh
'Cause I'll be standin' in the wings
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

(Repeat)
