i'm sittin' on top of the world

one summer day

she went away. she gone and left me

she gone to stay. but now she gone

and i don't worry. 'cause i'm sitting

on top of the world. worked all the summer

and worked all the fall. i had to take my christmas

in my overall. but now she gone

and i don't worry. because i'm sitting

on top of the world. goin' down to the

freight yard

just to meet a freight train. i'm gonna leave this town

well it's just got too hard. but now she gone

and i don't worry. 'cause i'm sitting

on top of the world. one summer day

she went away. she gone and left me

she gone to stay. but now she gone

and i don't worry. 'cause i'm sitting

on top of the world.
