“Don’t Worry” is a 1961 country/pop single written and recorded by Marty Robbins. “Don’t Worry” was Marty Robbins seventh number one on the country chart and stayed at number one for ten weeks. The single crossed over to the pop chart and was one of Marty Robbins’ most successful crossover songs, peaking at number three on the Hot 100
“Don’t Worry” is an early example of guitar distortion. Session guitarist Grady Martin’s amplifier had an electrical fault in it, creating a distorted sound. Although Martin did not like the sound, Robbins’ producer left the guitar track as it was.

Lyrics
Don’t worry ’bout me, it’s all over now Though I may be blue, I’ll manage somehow Love can’t be explained, can’t be controlled One day it’s warm, next day it’s cold
Don’t pity me ’cause I’m feeling blue Don’t be ashamed, it might have been you Oh oh oh oh oh love, kiss me one time, then go love I’ll understand, don’t worry ’bout me
Sweet sweet sweet love, I want you to be As happy as I when you loved me I’ll never forget you, you’re a sweet memory It’s all over now, don’t worry ’bout me
When one heart tells one heart one hard goodbye One heart is free, one heart will cry Oh oh oh oh oh sweet, sweet baby sweet baby sweet It’s all right, don’t worry ’bout me.
