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, quick as 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   Gone get me a freight train, worked on your hard   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
