Lyrics
Sunshine
© 2015 Bruce Mills (SOCAN)
Ladies out on the street
Walking back and forth
They got nothing I ain't seen before
Fancy people lined up at the backdoor
Waiting there to get a fix of music
All alone, sorry man
On the corner look at your hands
You got nothing to show me
You can have the lonely night all to yourself
I don't want to hang around here with you
CHORUS
I'll take the sunshine
Give me the blue skies
Everything I get today
Is gonna make me feel fine
I'll take the sunshine
Give me the blue skies
Everywhere I go today / everything I do today
Is gonna make me feel fine, fine, fine
Spread around the gospel
And give shelter to the homeless
Shine your light out into the darkness
You can sell your knockoffs
To everybody on the sidewalks
Take away all your money and run underground
Now you gotta watch you back man
You know they're gonna come and get you
The city ain't got no place good for hiding no more
High up in the skyscraper
Where the big movers and shakers go
Just to look down on you and all the traffic (go by)
All alone, sorry man
On the corner look at your hands
You got nothing but a load of trouble
You can have the lonely night all by yourself
I don't want to hang around here with you
Nothing gonna make me like the cold dark night
No one gonna take away my light (this little light of mine)
Nothing gonna make me like the cold dark night
No one gonna take away my light, no, no, no, no
You can have the night time
Give me the sunshine
