Last night as lay sleeping, I woke up in a sweat
From all the things that bothered me, and all of my regrets
Like thinThings I did and didn’t do, and all the fun I missed
The places that I’ve never been, the girls I never kissed
When I’m feelin’ worried, and trouble comes my way
I hear the words my daddy said, that grandpa used to say
There ain’t no need to worry, there ain’t no need to frown
If you were born to hang my son, no way you’ll ever drown
The fortunes that I never made , I’ll never get to spend
The ones I loved but never told, I’ll never see again
The promises I didn’ keep, the debts I never paid
The secrets I couldn’t share, the prayers I never prayed
So when my days are over, and it’s time for me to leave
There’ll be no fear inside me, there’ll be no loss to grieve
I wrote some songs I never sang, and books I never read
I won’t know when, where, or how, just what Grandpa said
There ain’t no need to worry, there ain’t no need to frown
If you were born to hang my son, you’ll dang sure never drown
