1. Was in the spring, one sunny day,

My sweetheart left me, Lord, she went away.

Now shes gone, and I dont worry,

Lord, Im sitting on top of the world.

2. Now shes gone, Lord, she wont come back,

Took my last nickel from the ration sack.

Now shes gone

3. If you dont like my peaches, dont you shake my tree,

Get out of my orchard, let my peaches be.

Now shes gone

4. Now shes gone, Lord, she wont come back,

Took my last nickel from the ration sack.

Now shes gone
