Hey Sunshine
Based on and played/sung to the rhythm of, “Hey Porter” (words and music by John R Cash. Copyright 1955 Hill And Range Songs Incorporated, USA))
Hey sunshine, Hey sunshine,
You've got a hold on me,
It's been that way,
Since afore I was three,
When I wake up in the morning, if a ray is shining through,
I gotta get up, I gotta get out,
I gotta whole lot of living to do
Hey sunshine, Hey sunshine,
How good you make me feel,
The power you have over me,
At times don't seem real,
At daybreak this morning, everything was spanking new,
I had to get up, I had to get out,
I had a whole lot of living to do
Hey sunshine, Hey sunshine,
My wife's got it in for you,
You showed up this morning,
It was just four-twenty-two
I looked at her, then I looked up and saw the sky so blue,
I raised my head, I got outta bed, (She said)
"What the Hell's the matter with you?”
Hey sunshine, Hey sunshine,
Now I've got it in for you,
You weren't there this morning,
That makes me feel so blue,
My wife smiled at me and said, “Now you're gonna have to stick around,”
But you know it ain't so bad,
We found a way to fool around,
Hey sunshine, Hey sunshine,
Stay away from me,
I don't need you now,
Hell, I am thirty-three,
At daybreak, that curtain, it'll stay drawn to,
I ain't getting up, I ain't going out,
'Cause I've got things to do!
