Louisiana Songs
Give Me Louisiana
Give me Louisiana, |
The State where I was born |
The State of snowy cotton, |
The best I've ever known; |
A State of sweet magnolias, |
And Creole melodies. |
Oh give me Louisiana, |
The State where I was born |
Oh what sweet old mem'ries |
The mossyold oaks bring. |
It brings us the story |
of our Evangeline. |
A State of old tradition, |
of old plantation days |
Makes good ole Louisiana |
The sweetest of all States. |
You Are My Sunshine
The other night, dear |
As I lay sleeping |
I dreamed I held you in my arms |
When I awoke, dear |
I was mistakened |
and I hung my head and cried; |
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 away. |
