Big Bill Broonzy's 1932 cover version of the Mississippi Sheiks' hit "Sitting On Top Of The World." The melody is the same but lyrics are different. Big Bill plays this in the key of E. The arrangement has trademark licks of Big Bill and combines a driving bass with treble licks and bass runs. Woody has transcribed note for note what Big Bill played on his recording.
