As a kid growing up in Livingston Parish, Louisiana we sang this in school. And yes, I remember Jimmie Davis and Earl K. Long when they were the governor of the state. I’ve heard this from Hong Kong to Norway. I also remember the day Jimmie rode his horse, Sunshine, up the steps of the state capitol in Baton Rouge. This is one of the state songs of Louisiana.
My Dad sent me this last year for my birthday as I've always been called his Sunshine. He is no longer with us and I have this to listen to. We'd play it on our acoustics together 💙
This is by far the greatest rendition of this song online. I use it to teach children here in Ireland. Thank you so much for the wonderful arrangement with all of the classic lyrics too.
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 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 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 I’ll always love you and make you happy that 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 gray, you’ll never know dear, how much I love you, please don’t take my sunshine away.

Maravilha! Quais os planos do grupo quanto ao repertório? Músicas autorais ou seguirão com essas belas homenagens? A formação está muito interessante! Dá até pra mandar algo de Gram Parsons e Emmylou Harris, heim? Burrito Brothers, Byrds, Eagles, e por aí vai! :-)
