One summer day,
He went away,
he's gone and left me,
He's gone to stay
But now he's gone,
and I can't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the world

Worked all the summer,
worked all the fall
Had to take my Christmas,
in my overalls
But now he's gone,
and I don't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the world

Goin' down to the freight yard,
catch me a freight train
I'm gonna leave this town,
work done got hard
But now he's gone,
and I don't worry
Because I'm sittin' on top of the world
