Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some mans gone he's tried to run my life
I don't know what he's askin'
Well he tells me I'd better get in line
I can't hear what he's sayin'
When I grow up I'm gonna make it mine
These ain't dues I've been payin'

Well how much does it cost (I'll buy it)
The time is all we've lost (I'll try it)
He can't even run his own life
I'll damned if he'll run mine...(sunshine)

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancin'
Some man's gone he's tried to run my life
I don't know what he's askin'

Working starts to make me wonder
Where fruits of what I do are goin'
He says in love and war all is fair
But he's got cards he ain't showin'

Well how much does it cost (I'll buy it)
The time is all we've lost (I'll try it)
He can't even run his own life
I'll damned if he'll run mine...(sunshine)

Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like singin'
This old world she's gonna turn around
Wedding bells will be ringin'
