Lyrics Why Worry - Mark Knopfler , The Everly Brothers

Baby
I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do and things they say

But, baby
I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
That turn your blue skies into gray

Why worry?
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?
Why worry now?

Baby
When I get down, I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
I know it isn't hard to say

But, baby
Just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way

Why worry?
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?
Why worry now?

Why worry now?

With all these handsome guys up here
It's a shame not to have a pretty girl and we just happen to have one
One of my favorites in the business
She's beautiful in every way, and a great singer
We're so lucky to have her on the show tonight
Let's welcome Emmylou Harris, yeah

Thank you, Chet
Thank you for a very kind introduction, spoken like a true gentleman which you are
I wanna thank you very much for including me in what I think is a really, really special event
'Cause I'm having a wonderful time just, just listening to the show
We needed here somebody an octave higher too, you know (I don't know)
You got some guys back there doin' a pretty job, singin' pretty high
And I'm very happy to be, to been asked to be a part of this
'Cause this is a very, very special event

It had to be because you're a very special person, I really mean that
You know, you've had that, thank you
Also, you have great suspenders
I keep fallin' off though
But, you know, you have
I've heard of some of the people you're working, with your band
I know Albert Lee, one of mine favorite guitar players (yeah)
And Ricky Scaggs, Rodney Crowell, Hank DeVito (it's not bad)
Not bad. We have a pretty good band with us tonight (sure do)

Sing us one of your favorites from your album (yeah)
This is one of my favorite old time songs, this is a song called "Precious Memories"
Chet is going to delight you with his mandolin work on this one
Kick it off, Chet
