Worried Life Blues
The Blues Magoos Lyrics

Oh lordy lord, oh lordy lord.
Expressing deep anguish and sorrow over a love that has ended.

It hurts me so bad for us to part.
The pain and heartache of breaking up is so intense that it's almost unbearable.

Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry my life no more.
Looking forward to a time when the memories and pain of lost love will no longer burden the mind and soul.

So many nights since you've been gone.
The absence of the loved one has created long, lonely nights with a sense of deep loss.

I've had to worry my life along.
The worry and anxiety has become a constant companion, making it hard to move forward in life.

I want your brown eyes till my days end.
Desiring the return of the lover with whom there was a deep connection and intimacy.

I want you as a lover, you're no good to me as my friend.
The lover is deeply desired for the intimacy and love that they can provide rather than a friendship, which will no longer suffice.

You're on my mind every place I go.
The memories and longing for the lover are a constant presence, following everywhere the artist goes.

And how much I love you, baby you'll never know.
The depth of love and longing is so strong that it cannot be expressed, even to the one who is being addressed in the song.

That's my story, that's all I gotta tell you.
The painful story of lost love is all the artist has left to share with the world, expressing a sense of finality.

So goodbye baby, I don't care what you do.
The relationship has come to a close, and the singer is letting go of the past with a sense of finality and detachment.

Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry my life no more.
Reiterating the hope for a time when the pain and worry of lost love will no longer hold sway over the artist's life.
