December 17th, 1960 Reel 370, Item 9 Sittin' On Top of the World It was late one evening Right after school Remember Baby, you broke the rule But now she's gone and I don't worry Fer I'm sittin' on top of the world If you don't like my peaches Don't shake my tree Stay out of my orchard Let my peaches be But now she's gone and I don't worry Fer I'm sittin' on top of the world If I could bray like a mountain jack I'd roam the woods and bring my baby back But now she's gone and I don't worry Fer I'm sittin' on top of the world 53Funding for digitization provided by the Arkansas Humanities Council and the Happy Hollow Foundation
