One summer day
She went away
Gone and left me
She's gone to stay
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm going down to the hardware
Gonna buy me a hacksaw
Gonna free my heard
Cut that pain away
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm going down to the graveyard
Gonna buy me a tombstone
Gonna leave this town
Lived here too long
She's gone, but I don't worry
Because I'm sitting on top of the world
