Words that rhyme with Worth
For lyric work, worth behaves as a workaday word. Sound-wise: one-syllable, vowel on the rounded /ษหr/, finally it ends in a hissed consonant. Common words like this gain weight from the company they keep on the line. What the engine returns: the perfect-rhyme list is short, nothing lands in the family-rhyme column, and the assonance options multiply into the thousands. Lyric-wise, the word reads as a word everyone uses. The contemporary ear forgives โ and prefers โ the assonance matches here.

Why worth rhymes the way it does
The phonology of worth is a one-syllable core: the rounded /ษหr/ (/ษหr/), then it tails through a fricative. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 10 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 57, assonance 1,938, and consonance 88. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Practical: skim the strict column first and pick the two or three matches you can sing without thinking. Then move to assonance for the in-between lines. Worth reads as more memorable when the strict matches are reserved for the line endings that matter most.
