The other night dear As I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear I was mistaken So I hung my head and I cried.
You are my sunshine My only sunshine You make me happy When skies are gray You'll never know dear How much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away
(Chorus)
So let the sun shine in Face it with a grin Smiles never loose And Frowners never win So let the sun shine in Face it with a grin Open up your heart and let the sun shine in
My mommy told me something That little girls should know It's all about the devil And I've learned to hate him so I know he'll be unhappy Cause I'll never wear a frown Maybe if we keep on smiling He'll get tired of hangin' round
