We'll sing in the sunshine

We'll laugh every da-a-y

We'll sing in the sunshine

Then I'll be on my way

I will never love you

The cost of love's too dear

But though I'll never love you

I'll stay with you one year

And we can sing in the sunshine

We'll laugh every da-a-y

We'll sing in the sunshine

Then I'll be on my way

I'll sing to you each mornin'

I'll kiss you every night

But darlin', don't cling to me

I'll soon be out of sight

But we can sing in the sunshine

We'll laugh every da-a-y

We'll sing in the sunshine

Then I'll be on my way

My daddy he once told me

"Hey, don't you love you any man"

"Just take what they may give you"

"And give but what you can"

"And you can sing in the sunshine"

"You'll laugh every da-a-y"

"You'll sing in the sunshine"

"Then be on your way"

And when our year has ended

And I have gone away

You'll often speak about me

And this is what you'll say

"We sang in the sunshine

"You know, we laughed every da-a-y"

"We sang in the sunshine"

"Then she went away"
