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

 I'll always love you and make you happy,
 If you will only say the same.
 But if you leave me and love another,
 You'll regret it all some day:

 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

 You told me once, dear, you really loved me
 And no one else [bad word] between.
 But now you've left me and love another;
 You have shattered all of my dreams:

 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

 In all my dreams, dear, you seem to leave me
 When I awake my poor heart pains.
 So when [bad word] back and make me happy
 I'll forgive you dear, I'll take all the blame.

 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
