Carl Perkins Sitting On The Top Of The World
Was all the summer, and all the fall, Just trying to find my little all in all But now she's gone, and I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world
Was in the spring, one summer day Just when she left me, she's gone to stay But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh I'm sitting on top of the world
An' you come runnin', holdin' up your hand Can't get me a woman, cranky you can get a man But now you're gone, and now I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world
Have been days, I didn't know your name Why should I worry or cry in vain But now she's gone, now I don't worry Lord I'm sitting on top of the world
Went to the station, down in the yard Gonna get me a freight train, worked and got to home But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh I'm sitting on top of the world
The lonesome days, they have gone by Why should you beg me oh say goodbye But now she's gone, and I don't worry Oh cause I'm sitting on top of the world
