I Got the Sun in the Morning
Taking stock of what I have
And what I haven't, what do I find?
The things I've got will keep me satisfied
Checking up on what I have
And what I haven't, what do I find?
A healthy balance on the credit side
Got no diamond, got no pearl
Still I think I'm a lucky girl
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
Got no mansion, got no yacht
Still I'm happy with what I've got
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
Sunshine gives me a lovely day
Moonlight gives me the Milky Way
Got no checkbooks, got no banks
Still I'd like to express my thanks
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night)
And with the sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening, I'm alright
Got no mansion, got no yacht
Still I'm happy with what I've got
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
Got no silver, got no gold
What I've got can't be bought or sold
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
Sunshine gives me a lovely day
Moonlight gives me the Milky Way
Got no checkbooks, got no banks
Still I'd like to express my thanks
I got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
And with the sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening, I'm alright
Sunshine gives me a lovely day
Moonlight gives me the Milky Way
Got no heirlooms for my kin
Made no will but when I cash in
I'll leave the sun in the morning and the moon at night
And with the sun in the morning
And the moon in the evening, there alright
