Thank you Mr Postman for the letter you bring

It's from my little darling and she's coming back again

I'll meet her at the station this morning at nine

Sunshine Special will be right on time



Sunshine Special blow your old whistle strain every nerve

Open up the throttle and straighten out the curve

Soon I'll see my baby then happy I will be

Sunshine Special bringing happiness to me

[ harmonica ]

Remember when she left me she left me oh so cold

Maybe for love or maybe for gold

But now I know she loves me and longs to be mine

Sunshine Special will be right on time

[ fiddle ]

See that engine rolling she's balling the Jack

Her wheels are hummin' Dixie and her headlight's on the track

Watch that engine swayin' as she's coming down the line

Sunshine Special will be right on time



Sunshine Special blow your old whistle...
