top runs on the pin point on its downward direction. When the top is spin it starts revolving on its place and then starts to move here and there. The example of top running we can take as of the Diwali cracker the chakri.
Hope this helps you...

This is a physics question.

A top is symmetrical around its central axis. The top is given an initial angular  momentum. At the metal pin at its bottom, the friction is very little on a smooth surface. So it spins for a long time due to less friction and little air resistance. 

The opposing force/torque  to the angular momentum is very little. So it maintains the vertical position as the vertical line from center of mass passes through the metalic tip.
