Top Of The World

歌詞

Singin' my heart out in the evening rain, An all-weather seranade on Ashton Lane, Made enough money for a ticket on a southbound train, A second-hand guitar and a stolen rucksack, All I thought I needed was all I could pack, I said "see you later" even though I knew I wasn't comin' back. [chorus] So if I sing you a Jimmy Cagney quote, Sing it through my teeth with a lump in my throat, I hope you know, That even though, I live a thousand miles from home, I'm on top of the world. I might be livin' in a bus but it's by the sea, And when the sun beats down it's over thirty degrees, There ain't a single day when I don't look about and think "lucky me". I drive a beat-up van and not a fast sports car, 'Cause I spent my money on a flashy guitar, I've come a long way even though I had to go this far.
