You Are My Sunshine Words and Music By:
Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell
Chorus
You are 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.
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 I cried.
Chorus
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;
Chorus
Louisiana my Louisiana, the place
where I was borne.
White fields of cotton, green fields of clover,
the best fishing, and long tall corn;
Crawfish gumbo and jambalaya,
the biggest shrimp and sugar cane,
the finest oysters, and sweet strawberries
from Toledo Bend, to New Orleans;
