Lyrics for Sittin' on Top of the World
Was all the summer, and all the fall, Just trying to find my little all in all But now she's gone, and I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world Was in the spring, one summer day Just when she left me, she's gone to stay But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh I'm sitting on top of the world An' you come runnin', holdin' up your hand Can't get me a woman, cranky you can get a man But now you're gone, and now I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world Have been days, I didn't know your name Why should I worry or cry in vain But now she's gone, now I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world Went to the station, down in the yard Gonna get me a freight train, worked and got to home But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh I'm sitting on top of the world The lonesome days, they have gone by Why should you beg me oh say goodbye But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh cause I'm sitting on top of the world
