One summer day

She went away

Gone and left me

She's gone to stay

She's gone, but I don't worry

Because I'm sitting on top of the world



I'm going down to the hardware

Gonna buy me a hacksaw

Gonna free my heard

Cut that pain away

She's gone, but I don't worry

Because I'm sitting on top of the world



I'm going down to the graveyard

Gonna buy me a tombstone

Gonna leave this town

Lived here too long

She's gone, but I don't worry

Because I'm sitting on top of the world
