You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, oh, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
The other night, as I lay sleeping
I dreamt a light entered my heart
When I awoke, I was mistaken
Ah, but the curtains were still blown apart
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away
My mama once told me
What a soul should know
It's about the devil, and I hate him so
He'll be crying, if we don't frown
And keep on smiling
He'll stop hanging round
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You never know, how much I love you
Oh, please don't take my sunshine away
