Work all the summer and all the fall |
|
Just trying to find my little Lenore |
|
But now she's gone, and I don't worry |
|
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world |
|
One summer day when she went away |
|
Just when she left me, she's gone to stay |
|
But now she's gone and I don't worry |
|
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world |
|
There was days when I didn't know your name |
|
Why should I worry and prayer in vain |
|
But now she's gone and I don't worry |
|
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world, alright |
|
Going to the station, down in the yard |
|
Gonna get me a freight train, after worked and got too hard |
|
Now she's gone and I don't worry |
|
Because I'm sitting on top of the world |
|
The lonesome days they have gone by |
|
Why should I beg her when she's saying goodbye? |
|
But now she's gone and I don't worry |
|
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world |
