We'll sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
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'll sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way.

I'll sing to you each morning
I'll kiss you every night
But darling don't cling to me
I'll soon be out of sight.

But we'll sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way.

My daddy he once told me
Don't you love you any woman
Just take what they may give you
And give but what you can.

And we'll sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my 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
We laughed every day
We sang in the sunshine
And I went on my way...
