I’m Sitting on Top of the World Songtext
von Aretha Franklin

I′m sitting on top of the world
Rolling along, rolling along, yeah
And I'm quitting the blues of the world, yeah
Singing a song, and rolling along

Glory Hallelujah, I just called the Parson
Hey, Parson get ready to call
Oh, just like Humpty Dumpty
I′m gonna fall

Lord, I'm sitting on top, top of the world
Rolling along, singing a song


Don't want any millions
′Cause I′m getting my share
I've only gotta one dress, oh, that′s all I can wear
A bundle of money won't make you feel gay
I′ve got a little honey, who's making me say, oh, oh

I′m sitting right up on top, on top of the world
Oh, rolling along, I've got to sing my song
Don't you know, don′t you know, that I′m quitting, the blues of the world?
Rolling along, let me sing my song

Glory Hallelujah, I just phoned the Parson
Hey, Parson get ready to call
Oh, just like Humpty Dumpty
I'm gonna fall

Oh, and I′m sitting right up on top, on top of the world
Oh, rolling along, let me sing my song
Don't you know, I′m quitting the blues, the blues of the world
Oh, rolling along, I've got to sing my song
Don′t you know that I'm sitting, up on top of the world?
And I said that I'm quitting, the blues of the world
