I'm Sitting on Top of the World

  VERSE 1

Don't want any millions,
I'm getting my share.
I've only got one suit,
That's all I can wear.
A bundle of money
Won't make you feel gay.
A sweet little honey
Is making me say:

  REFRAIN

“I'm sitting on top of the world,
Just rolling along,
Just rolling along.
I'm quitting the blues of the world,
Just singing a song,
Just singing a song.
Glory Hallelujah,
I just phoned the Parson,
‘Hey, Par, get ready to call.’
Just like Humpty Dumpty,
I'm going to fall.
I'm sitting on top of the world,
Just rolling along,
Just rolling along.”

  VERSE 2

Some people have diamonds
And beautiful pearls,
While others have children,
Just kiddies with curls.
Keep all of your fortunes,
Keep all of your fame,
I just found a sweetie
Who's changing her name.

  REPEAT REFRAIN
