Why Worry
Navigating Life's Turmoil: John Mayall's 'Why Worry' Wisdom
Lyrics
Got to see all those headlines
Reflecting on current events and news headlines.
Same old depressing news
Expressing the repetitively negative nature of the news.
Trouble surround us so I play my blues
Acknowledging troubles in the world, coping through blues music.
Tell me why should I worry
Raising a question about the need to worry.
All the world is crazed
Commenting on the chaotic state of the world.
We can take it, yes we do don't we
Expressing resilience and the ability to endure challenges.
I'm so amazed
Feeling amazed by the capacity to withstand difficulties.
So I go to the ocean
Seeking solace and contemplation by the ocean.
Give me time to think
Requesting time for personal reflection.
No time for troubles
Expressing the desire to avoid getting entangled in troubles.
Give me one more drink
Turning to alcohol as a temporary escape from problems.
I'm gonna leave for the ark
Expressing a decision to leave for a place of safety.
Do the best I can
Committing to do the best one can in challenging situations.
Shake out my troubles
Shaking off and letting go of personal troubles.
I'm not a worrying man
Asserting a mindset of not being prone to excessive worrying.
(Believe that stuff about gas gettin' cheaper)
Commenting on skepticism regarding claims of gas getting cheaper.
(You know the price will be up before you get up in the morning)
Highlighting the expected rise in gas prices overnight.
(Now 'bout this, do you think we're gonna get them horses back to the
Pondering the difficulty of bringing back horses to the ranch.
Ranch...)
Continuing the humorous and uncertain tone about the horses.
