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
