Was in the spring One sunny day My sweetheart left me Lord, she went away And now she's gone And I don't worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world She called me up From down in Al Paso She said, "Come back, daddy Ooh, I need you so" And now she's gone And I don't worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world Then don't you like my peaches 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 sitting On top of the world Don't you come back a-runnin' Holding out your hand Lord will get me a woman Like you got your man And now she's gone And I don't worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world Was in the spring One sunny day My sweetheart left me Lord, she went away And now she's gone And I don't worry Lord, I'm sitting On top of the world
