[Intro]
Hoo, yeah

[Verse 1]
Everybody's got a thing
But some don't know how to handle it
Always reachin' out in vain
Just takin' the things not worth havin' but

[Chorus]
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, baby
'Cause I'll be standin' on the side
When you check it out, oh
When you get it off your trip
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, yeah
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, yeah

[Verse 2]
Everybody needs a change
A chance to check out the new, yeah
You're the only one who sees
The changes you take yourself through, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh-oh, ooh, oh-oh, ooh, oh-oh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, yeah
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Pa-pa-p, pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-p, pa-pa-pa-pa
Pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa-pa

[Chorus]
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standin' on the side
When you check it out
When you get it off your trip
Don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standin' on the side
When you check it out
Oh, don't you worry 'bout a thing
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, mama
'Cause I'll be standin', I'll be standin' by you

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh
Oh, don't you worry 'bout a thing
