One summer day, she went away

Gone and left me, she's gone to stay.

She's gone, but I don't worry,

I'm sittin' on top of the world.

All the summer, worked on this farm

Had to take Christmas in my overalls.

She's gone, but I don't worry,

I'm sittin' on top of the world.

Going down to the freight yard,

Gonna catch me a freight train.

Gonna leave this town,

Work done got to hard.

She's gone, but I don't worry,

I'm sittin' on top of the world
