lyrics
Way down Columbus, Georgia
Lord wish I was back in Tennessee
Way down Columbus Stockade
All my friends have turned their backs on me
Go leave me if you wish to
Never let me cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Leave me little darlin' I don't mind
Many nights with you I've rambled
Many countless hours I have spent
I thought I had your little heart and precious love forever
Turns out it was only lent
Go leave me if you wish to
Never let me cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Leave me little darlin' I don't mind
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine way
Take it!
Last night when I was sleepin'
I dreamed I held you in my arms
When I awoke I was mistaken
I was still behind these bars
Go leave me if you wish to
Never let me cross your mind
In your heart you love another
Leave me little darlin' I don't mind
You are my sunshine, my only sunshine
You make me happy when skies are grey
You'll never know, dear, how much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine way
Don't take my sunshine away
Don't take my sunshine away
