Was in the spring

One sunny day

My sweetheart left me

Lord, she went away



And now she's gone

And I dont' worry

Lord, I'm sitting

On top of the world



She called me up

From down in Al Paso

She said "Come back, daddy

Ooh, I need you so"

And now she's gone

And I dont' worry

Lord, I'm sitting

On top of the world



(break)



If you don't like my peaches

Don't you shake my tree

'n Get out of my orchard

Let my peaches be

And now she's gone

And I dont' worry

Lord, I'm sitting

On top of the world



And don't you come here runnin'

Holding out your hand

I'm gonna get me a woman

Like you got your man

And now she's gone

And I dont' worry

Lord, I'm sitting

On top of the world



't Was in the spring

One sunny day

My sweetheart left me

Lord, she went away

And now she's gone

And I dont' worry

Lord, I'm sitting

On top of the world
