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.
