| Some people count success in money and pearls
|
| Some people spend it on fast cars and girls
|
| For me it’s sitting, sitting on top of the world
|
| I’ve got a little bit of time
|
| Come and help me waste it somehow
|
| My girl is happy, she got a 9−5
|
| Come on sister that’s more dead than alive
|
| And me I’m sitting, sitting on top of the world
|
| I’ve got a little bit of money
|
| Come and help me spend it somehow
|
| Pay now and later you will be fine
|
| That’s what the good books say
|
| I’m going out to have a good time
|
| While you wait for that rainy day
|
| I never asked you to change your ways
|
| Just understand the things that I do
|
| I’ve been thinking that one of these days
|
| You can come and sit here too
|
| Don’t need the money
|
| Don’t need a fast car
|
| You can be happy wherever you are
|
| If you’re sitting, sitting on top of the world
|
| I’ve got a little bit of love
|
| Come and let me share it somehow |
