You are my sunshine, my only sunshine

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

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.


But will someone PLEASE take this earworm away???

14. You're in Winston-Salem

I grew up in NC and went to school in Winston-Salem. What a great little city. I sure miss a lot of things about it.

They didn't like my singing! :(

9. Could be worse.

I could put up a link w/ my daughter singing it. She was two at the time.
If it helps, I'm listening to Time Goes By (Louis Armstrong version)

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

That would be adorable!

11. She was adorable.

Curly blonde hair and big blue eyes. Only problem is that you hear the song for days afterward.
She will still sing it on cue.

10. That would be adorable!

Delete - I hit the touchpad twice.

That's the third double post I've had in two days - what is wrong with me???

13. Governor Jimmy Davis of Louisiana wrote that song.

In "O Brother Where Art Thou" it was the official song of Mississippi Governor Pappy O'Daniel.

Of course, W Lee "Pappy" O'Daniel was actually a Governor of Texas. He sponsored the Light Crust Doughboys--most of whom fled Texas with Bob Wills....
