Verse:

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 me feel gay.

A sweet little Honey is making me say:

 

Chorus:

I'm Sitting On Top Of The World,

Just rolling along,  just rolling along.

I'm quiting 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 Siting On Top Of The World,

Just rolling a long,  just rolling a long.
