No need 'a runnin', holdin' up your hand I can get me a woman, quick as you can a man But now she's gone, and I don't worry, 'cause I'm sittin' on top of the world I'm on top of the world, with my leg hanging down My baby done quit me, gone out 'a this town But now she's gone, and I don't worry, 'cause I'm sittin' on top of the world Work all the summer and all the fall Now, they wanna take my Christmas, and my overalls But now she's gone, and I don't worry, 'cause I'm sittin' on top of the world Bye, bye, baby, honey if you call it gone It may worry me some, baby, but it won't last long But now she's gone, and I don't worry, 'cause I'm sittin' on top of the world
