Lyrics

One summer day
She went away
Gone and left me
She's gone to stay
She's gone
But I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
All the summer
Worked on this farm
Had to take Christmas
In my overalls
She's gone
But I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
Going down to the freight yard
Gonna catch me a freight train
Gonna leave this town
Work done got too hard
She's gone
But I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
Written by: Lonnie Chatmon, Walter Vinson
