G
It was in the spring, one sunny day
             C                      G 
My good gal left me, Lord she went away

Chorus
           G                Em 
Now she's gone and I don't worry
            G         D          G 
Cause I'm sitting on top of the world
(end Chorus)

She called me up from El Paso
Said, "Come back, Daddy, Lord I need you so."

Chorus

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Show me a woman a man can trust

Chorus

Mississippi River long, deep and wide 
The woman I'm loving is on the other side

Chorus

You don't like my peaches, don't you shake my tree 
Get out of my orchard, let my peaches be

Chorus

Don't you come here running, poking out your hand 
I'll get me a woman like you got your man

Chorus
