Album: The Rise and Fall of Paramount Records 1928-1932, Volume 2
Was all the summer, and all the fall
Just tryin' to find my, little Lenore
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
'Cause I’m sitting on top of the world
Was in the spring, one summer day
Just when she left me, she’s gone to stay
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
I’m sitting on top of the world
Then you come here runnin'
Holdin' up your hand
Can get me a woman
Quick as you can get a man
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
I’m sitting on top of the world
(Instrumental)
It have been days
I didn’t know your name
Why should I worry and prayer in vain?
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
I’m sitting on top of the world
Goin' to the station, down in the yard
Gon' get me a freight train
Worked some, got hard
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
I’m sitting on top of the world
The lonesome days, they have gone by Why should you beg me and say goodbye?
But now she’s gone, I don’t worry
I’m sitting on top of the world
