Sitting On Top Of The World - James Cotton, Hubert Sumlin

Was all the summer, and all the fall,

Just trying to find my little all in all

But now she’s gone, and I don’t worry

Lord 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, and I don’t worry

Oh I’m sitting on top of the world

An' you come runnin', holdin' up your hand

Can’t get me a woman, cranky you can get a man

But now you’re gone, and now I don’t worry

Lord I’m sitting on top of the world

Have been days, I didn’t know your name

Why should I worry or cry in vain

But now she’s gone, now I don’t worry

Lord I’m sitting on top of the world

Went to the station, down in the yard

Gone get me a freight train, worked on your hard

But now she’s gone, and I don’t worry

Oh I’m sitting on top of the world

The lonesome days, they have gone by Why should you beg me oh say goodbye

But now she’s gone, and I don’t worry

Oh cause I’m sitting on top of the world
