I'm Sittin' on Top of the World Songtext
von Bill Monroe

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
Lord, I'm sitting on top of the world


She come in dust in El Paso
Said, "Come up, daddy, I need you so"
But now she's gone and I don′t worry
Lord, 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
Lord, I'm sitting on top of the world

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