LYRICS

Top of the World

VERSE ONE
It's just a small town, too small to hold all her dreams,
She's getting' restless to get up, get out, and be seen,
Well, the nights roll in and go too fast,
And the days rain down like broken glass, and
She needs to be on top of the world.

VERSE TWO
Her friends and her family worry she's out of control,
But she feels that road pullin' hard at her body and soul,
She's always been the obedient one,
Longing to follow that vagabond sun, and
She needs to be on top of the world,
Yeah, she needs to be on top of the world.

VERSE THREE
She saved all her pennies, her nickels, her dimes and some bills,
Bought a rusty old Chevy to carry her over those hills,
Now the wind's at her back 'neath the infinite sky,
There's a tear on her cheek and a gleam in her eye.

Now she's on top of the world,
Yeah, she's on top of the world.
