Lyrics

[Intro]
Here's a song, it's about, it's about life when it's good
You gotta sing this chorus with us
It'll make you so fuckin' good, you can't stand it
Hey, baby
[Verse 1]
I know she believes in me
That's all I ever need
No, no, nothing's gonna stop me
Nothing will discourage me, oh, no
Hey, baby
Play it nice and sweet
Oh, little darling
Let's take a walk down easy street
[Chorus]
Standing on top of the world
That's right, just for a little while
I'll be standing on top of the world
Now, standing all we got
[Verse 2]
Oh, I know it won't hurt
I got to have a little taste
And just a little taste
I just wanna sink my teeth in that fine piece of real estate, yeah
Hey, baby
It's the only way out
Oh, little darling
Now come on, what's it all about?
[Chorus]
Standing on top of the world
That's Dallas, Texas for your information
Standing on top of the world
You up there, standing all we got
[Bridge]
Baby, what a feeling
Yeah, I wanna touch it now
See the whole wide world turn upside down, oh
[Instrumental]
So hey, baby
On down, some day
Some day, we'll be, we'll be
[Chorus]
Standing on top of the world
For a little while
Standing on top of the world
Yeah, bingo, we gon' stand
Standing on top of the world
Oh, for a little while, little while
Standing on top of the world
Let's give it all we got
[Outro]
Hey, baby
Hey, darling
Some day, the top of the world is gonna be yours
You own it, baby
God bless you, man, we love you
Peace and love, I swear to God, I mean that
Eddie Van Halen, Michael Anthony
Alex Van Halen, The Red Rocker, Sammy Hagar
You fuckin' people are all ready for us
[Instrumental]
I don't know what's going on
Ain't two ways about it
Ain't no other way home
Ain't two ways about it
I'm goin' down, goin' down, goin'
Woah
[Instrumental]
Standin' on top of the world
[Instrumental]
Thank you
[Instrumental]
We'll see you in February
We love you people, man, God bless you, drive home careful, okay?
We love you, man, great
That's the most fun I've had in a long time
It was real and it was honest
