Jonathan Edwards – Sunshine – 4/6/2016 – Paste Studios, New York, NY

Sunshine, go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
He don't know what he's asking
When he tells me I better get in line
I can't hear a word he's saying
When I grow up, I'm gonna make it mine
These ain't dues I been paying

Well, how much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
And he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, sunshine

Sunshine, go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life
He don't know what he's asking

Working starts to make me wonder where
Fruits of what I do are going
When he says in love and war, all is fair
He's got cards he ain't showing

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
And he can't even run his own life
I'll be damned if he'll run mine, sunshine

Sunshine, come on back another day
I promise you I'll be singing
This old world, she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells will be ringing

💯🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟✌️🥰👍👋👋👋👋👋💯

Sounds better than the original recording

He sure looks different from his album cover when he had long black hair and was skinny, it's like looking at a different person.

Great simple tune but I have to learn that little walk down at the end.

I dont like this version

Love this song yeah…..

Saw him at some festivals a few times in the 70s and 80s …..too bad this tune got hung around his neck (much like Alice's Resturant for Arlo) because he is soooooo much more than that tune ….just massivly talented on vocals , guitar and harmonica ….but commercially he never got past sunshine
