Was all the summer and all the fall.
Just tryin' to find my little all and 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'd gone to stay.
But now she's gone I don't worry.
I'm sitting on top of the world.
Needn't have come here runnin', holdin' up your hand.
Can get me a woman, quick as you can 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.
Gonna get me a freight train, work's done 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.
