Not a kiddie song

In the song title game I said I'd post the full lyrics to "You Are My Sunshine" to prove it isn't really a kiddie song, but a REALLY depressing folk song that I've sung ever since my fiance left me. Here it goes:


the other night dear
as i lay sleeping
i dreamed i held you in my arms
but when i woke dear
i was mistaken
and i hung my head and i cried
you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
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
if you would only say the same
but if you leave
and love another
you'll regret it all someday
you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
you'll never know dear
how much i love you
please don't take my
sunshine away
you told me once dear
you really loved me
and no one could come between
but now you've left me
to love another
you have shattered all of my dreams
you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
you'll never know dear
how much i love you
please don't take my
sunshine away
in all my dreams dear
you seem to leave me
when i awake my poor heart pains
so won't you come back
and make me happy?
i'll forgive dear i'll take all the blame
you are my sunshine
my only sunshine
you make me happy
when skies are grey
you'll never know dear
how much i love you
please don't take my
sunshine away





funny how people sing it happily, isn't it?

bummer, i guess that's why they only sing the chorus.

ahhhh emo j/k better than the Barney song.

i know the lyrics. it s stilla kiddie song. i knwe the lyrics when i was 3. :rolleyes:

me too, but I always thought it's cuz I'm southern.

Same with "Ring Around the Rosie", it was actually sung during medieval times during the black plague, "ashes, ashes (cremation of diseased bodies) , we all fall down (die)."

^ yup, thats pretty sweet.

there's another one too... Disney started using it but it used to be a really racist song back in the day... some dude went around with charcoal on his face singing it making fun of the black's good outlook on life even though they were in a bad situation...

it's like that song that goes my, oh my, what a wonderful day... something something sunshine, comin my way...

zipadee do da, zippadee A! theres a blue birrd on my shoulder. That one?

yeah that's it... ziipidie whatever

:lol:

this thread just gets better. now i forgot what i was goin' to say. damn. oh well.

this thread makes me wanna whistle.

and then hate yourself for whistling and making people think you were happy but really you feel dark and unwanted inside.

this got real emo real fast

Yeah, I know all about those evil songs that kids sing. Here's one I heard the other day.

Anti-gay -
Backing the N.R.A. -
Kids...who...pray
Ev-ry day in their class-room seat -
'Cause it's time you...got...it...Right
Got it right
On Sesame Streat!
