Sittin' On Top Of The World

One summer day

She went away

She gone an left me

She gone to stay

But now she gone

An' I don't worry

'Cause I'm sittin' on top of the world

Works all the summer

And worked all the fall

I had to take my Christmas

In my over-halls*

But now she's gone

An' I don't worry

Because I'm sittin' on top of the world

Goin' down to the freight yard

Just to meet a freight train

I'm gon' leave this town

Work has done gotten too hard

But now she's gone

And I don't worry

Because I'm sittin' on top of the world

One summer day

She went away

She gone an left me

She gone to stay

But now she gone

And I don't worry

Because I'm sittin' on top of the world
