Lyrics:
G7
One summer day, she went away
C7
Gone and left me, she's gone to stay
Chorus:
G7 D7
She's gone but I don't worry
I'm sittin on top of the world
G7 C7 G7 D7
All the summer worked all this fall
had to take christmas in my overalls
Chorus
Solo
Goin down to the graveyard gonna catch me a freight train
gonna leave this town work done got too hard
Chorus
G#7 G7
