Yeah, he gets up in the morning
And he's waiting for a feeling that won't connect
No, it won't connect
And he looks up at the clock, it's spinning
Feels just like a dog laying on his back
Won't get off his back
And later on when the evening comes
He's right back where he started from
But he says

You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no

Yeah, he starts the daily routine drinking
But he ends up thinking of no regrets
There are no regrets
And he stares into the mirror wondering
Why the hell he's wondering, he can't relax
No, he can't relax
Pretty soon he hears them banging on the door
But he wonders what they're trying for
And he says

You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no

Ain't no time for crying anymore
I'm gonna be all right
I'm sure

You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
You don't have to worry about me, no
I'll be all right by myself
