Sitting on Top of the World Lyrics

One summer day
She went away
She gone an left me
She gone to stayBut now she gone
An' I don't worry
'Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world
Works all the summerAnd worked all the fall
I had to take my Christmas
In my over-halls*
But now she's goneAn' I don't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the worldGoin' down to the freight yard
Just to meet a freight train
I'm gon' leave this town
Work has done gotten too hardBut now she's gone
And I don't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the world
One summer dayShe went away
She gone an left me

She gone to stay
But now she goneAnd I don't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the world
