I've been
up and I've been down
Almost level with the ground
Since I heard that lonesome sound
It's been a long time
since I've around
But I'm movin', movin' on up the river
And I'm movin' right along
And I'm singing my song, sitting on top of the,
sitting on top of the world, sitting
on top of the world,
I'm sitting on top of the world.
I was born a natural maver
ick child
Going with the herd is not
my style
Yeah, well, since I was in school I've
never felt it by the roof
Well, I'm movin' on up
that mountainside
And I'm lookin' down on the
city down below
Well, I'm going with the flow
Sailing out on top of the world
Yes, I am
Sailing out on top of the world
So
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's all worth someone
playing with fire
Especially when the stakes get higher
You'll have to learn to just not care
All the petty jealousy out there
An d I'm moving on up
that mountainside
And in by the crystal stream
And I'm makin' my own dream
Sittin' on top of the world
Yes, I am
Yeah
Sittin' on,
sittin' on top of the world
Slide out on top of the world
Going up that mountainside
Look down on the city,
down on the city
Down on the city,
way down below
Down on the city
Way down below
Take my hand
Take my hand
Take my hand
And you'll walk with me
Over yonder, over yonder, over yonder,
where the boats go by, look over yonder.
