ORIGINAL SONGTEXTE
You come here runnin' holdin' out your hand
I'm gonna get me a woman and you can have that man
Lord, I'm gone, gone, gone
I don't worry
Lord, I am sitting on top of the world
I worked all summer, and all the fall
I even spent Christmas, in my overalls
But now shes gone
An' I don't worry
‘Cos I'm sittin' on top of the world
That Mississippi River, so deep an' wide
My baby's standin', Lord on the other side
Oh, but now she's gone, gone, gone
An I don't worry
'Cos I am sittin' on top of the world
One summer's day she went away (she went)
She went and left me for good, to stay
And now she's gone
An' I don't worry
'Cos I'm sittin' on top of the world
You come here runnin' holdin' out your hand
I'm gonna get me a woman and you can have your man
Well, now she's gone, gone, gone
An' I don't worry
'Cos I'm sittin' on top of the world
