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

[Verse 1]
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 can sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way

[Verse 2]
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 can sing in the sunshine
We'll laugh every day
We'll sing in the sunshine
Then I'll be on my way
[Verse 3]
My daddy he once told me
Hey, don't you love you any man
Just take what they may give you
And give but what you can

And you can sing in the sunshine
You'll laugh every day
You'll sing in the sunshine
Then be on your way

[Verse 4]
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
You know we laughed every day
We sang in the sunshine
Then she went away
