One summer day, she went away;
Gone and left me, shes gone to stay.
Shes gone, but I dont worry:
Im sitting on top of the world.

All the summer, worked all this fall.
Had to take christmas in my overalls.
Shes gone, but I dont worry:
Im sitting on top of the world.

Going down to the freight yard, gonna catch me a freight train.
Going to leave this town; worked and got to home.
Shes gone, but I dont worry:
Im sitting on top of the world.
