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 can sing in the sunshine...
  
   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...
  
   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
  
   Now when our year has ended and I have gone away
   You'll often speak about me and this is what you'll say
   Oh we sang in the sunshine you know we laughed every day
   We sang in the sunshine then she went on her way
