One summer day she went away
Gone and left me, she's gone to stay
She's gone, I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
All the summer worked all this fall
Had to take Christmas in my overalls
She's gone, but I don't worry
I'm sitting on top of the world
Going down to the freight yard
Gonna catch me a freight train
Going to leave this town
Worked and got to home
She's gone, but I don't worry
