back to figure a:



I saw her in Dallas and El Paso.

Said, "Come back baby, I need you so."

Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry

'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.



Mississippi River so big and wide,

Blond haired woman on the other side.

Now she's gone, gone, gone and I don't worry

'Cause I'm sitting on top of the world.
