Mississippi River so big and wide
Blond haired woman on the other side
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Worked all summer, spring and fall
Blond haired woman was the cause of it all
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Don't come here running, holding out your hand
I have me a woman, you can grab your man
Well now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Saw her in Dallas, in El Paso
Blonde headed woman, don't need you so
Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
Don't come here running, holding out your hand
I have me a woman, you can have your man
But now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
