Sitting on Top of the World
(Burnett)


One summer day she went away
She's 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 last 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.

Goin' to the freight yard gonna take me a freight train
I'm going to leave this town
Work done got too hard
She's gone
But I don't worry
I'm sittin' on top of the world
