Sitting On Top of the World

Was in the spring one sunny day
My good man left me, Lord he went away
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world


He called me up from El Paso
Said come back honey, Lord I need you so
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world

Mississippi river long, deep and wide
The man I love, is on the other side
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world


Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Show me a man, that a woman can trust
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world


Don’t like my peaches, don’t shake my tree
Get out of my orchard, let my peaches be
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world


Don’t ‘cha come here running holdin’ out your hand
You got a new woman, I’ll get me a new man
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry no
Sitting on top of the world
Now he’s gone, but I don’t worry
Sitting on top of the world
