DON’T WORRY ABOUT ME
Words and Music by Tage Plantell

Well I’m doing alright and that’s okay
cause I’m living my life in a whole new way
Got my job and at 6 o’clock then I’m done

I don’t need big money or a fancy house
I’m not looking for direction so no need to know the route
I got a 401K waiting for me at the end

I’m making my own meals each and every day
Saving up some money to just get away
I’m doing the best that I have ever done

So no need to worry I’m doing just fine
If I need some help call you in some time
So until then don’t worry about me

I end up working 40 each and every week
Then there’s time and a half and that’s real neat
But mostly there’s no reason to indulge

2 hours of vacation with each pay stub
middle management is a bitch and that’s the rub
but I feel the weekend and it’s coming soon

Well the Christmas party it’s real fun
And there's 9 more months till we have another one
We can drink ourselves silly on the company tab

I’m not doing what I hoped I be doing with my life
Soon I’ll settle down and find me a wife
So remember don’t worry about me

If someday I find myself in trouble
I’ll let you know what you can do
If someday I find myself in double
I’d appreciate you getting me through
