Sitting on Top of the World

Sitting On Top of the World - The Mississippi Sheiks

Was all the summer and all the fall

Just trying to find my little Lenore

But now she's gone I don't worry

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 I don't worry

I'm sitting on top of the world

An' you come here runnin' holdin' up your hand

Can get me a woman quick as you can get a man

But now she's gone I don't worry

I'm sitting on top of the world

It have been days I didn't know your name

Why should I worry and prayer in vain

But now she's gone I don't worry

I'm sitting on top of the world

Goin' to the station down in the yard

Gon' get me a freight train worked some got hard

But now she's gone I don't worry

I'm sitting on top of the world

The lonesome days they have gone by

Why should you beg me and say goodbye

But now she's gone I don't worry

I'm sitting on top of the world
