TURN ON THE SUNSHINE
From the 1960 movie, "Where The Boys Are"
(Howard Greenfield / Neil Sedaka)

Connie Francis 


If you're walking in the shadows
And then it's time that you get wise
And just forget about your troubles
And open up your eyes

And when you wear a smile
The world will shout, "Hooray!"
You gotta turn on the sunshine
Your gonna put the blues away!

And just a little bit of sunshine
Makes it all a better place
You can chase away your troubles
When you got a happy face

When you wear a smile
The world will shout, "Hooray!"
You gotta turn on the sunshine
Your gonna put the blues away!

If the world is sad and weary now
You don't have to be a politician
You can change it all
With a sunny disposition

So, be happy
And spread it all around
If you find yourself a-frownin'
Just turn it upside down

When you wear a smile
The world will shout, "Hooray!"
You gotta turn on the sunshine
You gotta give in one time

You gotta turn on the sunshine
Put those blues away!

Man, this dialect is too much!
