Boise_LibThanks @Fusionaut
SagemindTouching...
Sad - not what I expected at all.
I've always heard this as an upbeat song - never really gave the lyrics much thought.
antWho did the original song? I only know the kids/children version.

Copyright by former Louisiana State Governor Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell in 1940. There seems to be some dispute on who exactly wrote this classic.
From the Wiki:
Davis and Charles Mitchell are the credited songwriters of "You Are My Sunshine". Davis bought the song and rights from Paul Rice and put his own name on it, a practice not uncommon in the pre-World War II music business.[2] Some early versions of the song, however, do credit the Rice Brothers. According to some accounts, clarinetist Pud Brown was also involved with the Rice Brothers for the song's origin or first arrangement.
siftbotJohnny Cash and June Carter - You Are My Sunshine has been added as a related post - related requested by Boise_Lib on that post.
