Was in the summer One early fall Just tryin' to find my Little all and all Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Was in the spring One summer's day Just when she left me She gone to stay Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Now don't come runnin' Holdin' up your hand Can get me a woman Quick as you can get a man Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Happen for days Didn't know your name Oh, why should I worry Or crave you in vain ? Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Went to the station Down in the yard Gonna get me a freight train Work's done got hard Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. The lonesome days They have gone by Why should I beg you ? You said goodbye Now she's gone An' I don't worry Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
