|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away |
|
The other nite, dear, |
|
As I lay sleeping |
|
I dreamed I held you in my arms. |
|
When I awoke, dear, |
|
I was mistaken |
|
And I hung my head and cried. |
|
You are my sunshine, |
|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away. |
|
I'll always love you |
|
And make you happy |
|
If you will only say the same |
|
But if you leave me |
|
To love another |
|
You'll regret it all some day; |
|
You are my sunshine, |
|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away. |
|
You told me once, dear |
|
You really loved me |
|
And no one else could come between |
|
But now you've left me |
|
And love another |
|
You have shattered all my dreams; |
|
You are my sunshine, |
|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away. |
|
Louisiana my Louisiana |
|
The place where I was borne. |
|
White fields of cotton |
|
-- green fields clover, |
|
The best fishing |
|
And long tall corn; |
|
You are my sunshine, |
|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away. |
|
Crawfish gumbo and jambalaya |
|
The biggest shrimp and sugar cane, |
|
The finest oysters |
|
And sweet strawberries |
|
From Toledo Bend to New Orleans; |
|
You are my sunshine, |
|
My only sunshine. |
|
You make me happy |
|
When skies are grey. |
|
You'll never know, dear, |
|
How much I love you. |
|
Please don't take my sunshine away. |
