E Was in the summer, One early fall, A Just tryin' to find my E Little all and all Now she's gone, B An' I don't worry. A E Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Was in the spring, One summer's day. Just when she left me, She gone to stay. Now she's gone. An' I don't worry. Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Now don't come runnin' Holdin' up your hand. Can get me a woman Quick as you can get a man. Now she's gone. An' I don't worry. Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Happen for days, Didn't know your name. Oh, why should I worry Or crave you in vain? Now she's gone. An' I don't worry. Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. Went to the station, Down in the yard, Gonna get me a freight train, Work's done got hard. Now she's gone. An' I don't worry. Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world. The lonesome days, They have gone by, Why should I beg you? You said good-bye. Now she's gone. An' I don't worry. Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world.
