Sitting on top of the world - Van Morrison

You come here running

Holding out your hand

I’m gonna get me a woman, baby

And you can have that man

Lord, I’m gone, gone, gone

I don’t worry

Lord, I am sitting on top of the world

Yes, I am

How you think about it, Van?

I worked all summer and all the fall

I even spent Christmas in my overalls

But now, child’s gone, yeah, she is

And I don’t worry, boy, don’t worry

'Cause I’m sitting on top of the world

Lord, I reckon

That Mississippi River

So deep and wide

My baby’s standing, Lord

On the other side

Oh, but now she’s gone, gone, gone

And I don’t worry

'Cause I am sitting on top of this world

Can you blow me some of that horn, cat now?

One summer day

She went away

She went and left me

For good to stay

And now she’s gone

And I don’t worry

'Cause I’m sitting on top of the world, yeah

You come here running

Holding out your hand

I’m gonna get me a woman

And you can have your man

Well, though she’s gone, gone, gone

And I don’t worry

'Cause I’m sitting on top of the world
