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
