Was all the summer, and all the fall, Just trying to find my little all in all But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
Was in the spring, one summer day Just when she left me, she's gone to stay But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
An' you come here runnin', holdin' up your hand Can't get me a woman, who can just kill a man But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
It have been days, I didn't know your name Why should I worry and prayer in vain But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
Goin' to the station, down in the yard Gone get me a freight train, worked some - got hard But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
The lonesome days, they have gone by Why should you beg me and say goodbye But now she's gone, I don't worry I'm sitting on top of the world
