Sittin' On Top of the World Lyrics

One summer day, she went away
She's gone and left me, she's gone to stay
Lord she's gone, but I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
Well my lover took with my best friend
Some joker got lucky, stoled her back again
Lord she's gone, but I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
Well in the summer I have he fall
I spent my Christmas in my overalls
She's gone, but I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
Going down to the railway to catch a freight train
I'm gonna leavw this town, for her I'm bound
She's gone, but I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
One summer day, she went away

She's gone and left me, she's gone to stay
She's gone, gone, gone but I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.

The Mississippi Sheiks were a popular and influential American guitar and fiddle group of the 1930s. They were notable mostly for playing country blues, but were adept at many styles of popular music of the time. The Mississippi Sheiks consisted mainly of the Chatmon family, who came from Bolton, Mississippi and were well known throughout the Mississippi Delta. The father of the family had been a "musicianer" (someone with good technical ability on his or her instrument adept at sight-reading written music) during slavery times, and his children carried on the musical spirit.
