Sitting on Top of the World
[Intro]
I'm gonna do a number here called "Sittin' on Top of the World"
I'm not right sure where this came from
But it's an old one
[Verse 1]
Was in the spring, one sunny day
My sweetheart left me, yeah, she went away
Now she's gone and I don't worry
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world
[Verse 2]
Don't you come back a-runnin', holdin' out your hand
I'll get me a woman like you got your man
And now she's gone, and I don't worry
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world
[Verse 3]
Don't you like my peaches, then don't you shake my tree
Stay out of my orchard, let my peaches be
And now she's gone, and I don't worry
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world
[Verse 4]
Well, she called me up from down in El Paso
She said "Come back, Daddy, oh, I need you so"
But now she's gone, and I don't worry
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 1]
Was in the spring, one sunny day
My sweetheart left me, yes, she went away
And now she's gone, and I don't worry
Lord, I'm sittin' on top of the world
