About Don't Worry 'Bout Me Baby

"Don't Worry 'bout Me Baby" is a song written by Deborah Allen, Bruce Channel and Kieran Kane, and recorded by American country music artist Janie Fricke. It was released in April 1982 as the second single from the album Sleeping with Your Memory. The song was the first of Fricke's, seven solo number ones on Billboard magazine Hot Country Singles chart. Fricke had actually sung on several other No. 1 songs in the past, often as an uncredited background vocalist (for example, "Thinking of a Rendezvous" by Johnny Duncan). In addition, she had dueted with Charlie Rich on their 1978 No. 1 song, "On My Knees." However, this was Fricke's first No. 1 song to feature her solo talents.

There's no way to know, how this is all gonna end 
Don't be afraid that you might make me cry 
We fell in love once, we could fall again 

Don't worry 'bout me baby, 
For telling me lies 
It makes no difference how it all works out 
How can I make you understand 
This night with you is all I'm thinking about. 
If I can't have it all, I'll take what I can 

[Chorus:] 
Don't worry 'bout me baby, I'll be alright 
Don't worry 'bout me baby, just love me tonight.

This can't be wrong, I know that it's right 
So as long as it's good, keep holding me tight-ight 

[Repeat Chorus]
