Lyrics:

It was in the spring one sunny day
My good girl left me, she's gone away
But now she's gone and I don't worry
'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world

She called me up from down in El Paso
Said, 'Come up daddy, I need you so'
But now she's gone and I don't worry
Now that I'm sitting on top of the world

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Show me a woman a man can trust
But now she's gone and I don't worry
Now that I'm sitting on top of the world

The Mississippi River, long, deep and wide
The woman I'm loving is on the other side
But now she's gone and I don't worry
Now that I'm sitting on top of the world
