Why Worry
Israel Vibration Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

To worry about anything
Who can say what the future gonna bring
But if you worry about tomorrow
It will only bring you sorrow
Go out and have a good time
For this world is so fine
Go out and have a good time
This world is so fine
This world is so fine
Hold your head up high
Face the future with a smile
Things'll be better
It just takes a little while
So when you're feelin' low, down and out
You're gonna shine without a doubt
Go out and have a good time
For this world is so fine
Go out and have a good time
This world is so fine
This world is so fine
Life is just what you make it
Can be good or can be bad
How can you miss something you never had?
When things go wrong don't forget
There's no need for you to get upset
Go out and have a good time
For this world is so fine
Go out and have a good time
This world is so fine
This world is so fine
It's gonna be alright




To worry about anything
Who can say what the future gonna bring

Everyday I believe (believe)
Believe I really get confused (confused)
And everyday I tune on the air (the air)
I hear about the tribulation everywhere (everywhere)
I went down down just the other day (the other day)
I see the rest of man, they were everywhere (everywhere)
They all were sad and their face looked bad (looked bad)
I knew the tribulation was really sad (really sad)
I spread their mats and them I say (and then I say)
Why worry worry worry when I can pray (I can pray)
I spread their mats and then I say (and then I say)
Higher higher nights leads the way (leads the way)
Why worry (why worry, why worry, why worry)
When you can pray
Sees lost and, lost and fallen
As it leads the way, my God
And I don't be like doubtful Thomas
I say so, don't go down with fighting gun (why should you do that)
Why worry, why worry, why worry no more
And don't you ever say you're in a hurry
And you can never ever get to pray
(Do not worry now, all nation back to God)
If you do ever say that you're in a hurry (all nation back to God)
That you can never ever get to pray (why worry)
But as you go along the way (no worry)
And don't you forget to pray (do not worry now)
Be careful what the people say (all nation back to God)
Or they will let you go astray (why worry)
Don't fake the thing you do (don't worry)
And surely surely surely God will put you through
Why should I (all nation back to God) be resting when I am to pray
(Why worry, no worry, do not worry now)
No worry, no worry (all nation back to God)
No worry, no worry (why worry)
Why worry (no worry)
(Do not worry now, all nation back to God)
If you ever say you're in a hurry

Had to blow you away.......first time I saw them they were still a trio. I really think they "levitated" the House of Blues, New Orleans the Vibes were so powerful. ✌🏿😎

@lawrencenjawe1935

Magnificent!! This song actually launched their career in 1976 when released as a single.
