Lyrics:

Well it was in the spring one sunny day
When my woman left me and she went away
Oh but now she's gone I don't worry
Cause I'm sittin' up here on top of the world

Mississippi River is deep and wide
That woman I love love is on the other side
Oh but now she's gone gone but I don't worry none
Cause I'm sittin' sittin' on top of the world

Mississippi River is deep and wide...

[ guitar ]
Well it was in the spring one sunny day...

[ banjo ]
I'm sittin' on top of the world sittin' on top of the world
I don't worry I don't worry sittin' up here on top of the world
