SITTING ON THE TOP OF THE WORLD

IT WAS IN THE SPRING, ONE SUNNY DAY
MY GOOD GAL LEFT ME, SHE WENT AWAY
------------------------chorus----------------------------
AND NOW SHE'S GONE AND I DON'T WORRY
CAUSE I'M SITTING ON THE TOP OF THE WORLD
-----------------------------------------------------------
MISSISSIPPI RIVER, LONG DEEP AND WIDE
THE WOMAN I'M LOVING, IS ON THE OTHER SIDE

THE WOMAN I LOVE, WHO TREATS ME RIGHT
RAN OVER WITH A PICKER, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

WELL A NICKEL IS A NICKEL, AND A DIME IS A DIME
WELL I HAVE THE NICKEL, WHETHER SHE HAS THE TIME

DON'T YOU COME HERE RUNNING, POKING OUT YOUR HAND
I'LL GET ME A WOMAN, LIKE YOU GOT YOUR MAN
