I Got The Sun In The Morning

I Got the Sun in the Morning
Les Brown
Words and music by Irving Berlin
Introduced by Ethel Merman in the musical «Annie Get Your gun.»
Sung by Betty Hutton in the 1950 film version
Taking stock of what I have and what I haven’t
What do I find?
The things I’ve got will keep me satisfied
Checking up on what I have and what I haven’t
What do I find?
A healthy balance on the credit side
Got no mansion, got no yacht
Still I’m happy with what I’ve got;
I’ve got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I've got the sun in the morning and the moon at night.)
Got no silver, got no gold
What I’ve got can’t be bought or sold;
I’ve got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I've got the sun in the morning and the moon at night.)
Sunshine gives me a lovely day
Moonlight gives me the Milky Way
Got no checkbooks, got no banks
Still I’d like to express my thanks;
I’ve got the sun in the morning and the moon at night
(I've got the sun in the morning and the moon at night.)
And with the sun in the morning and the moon in the evening
Why I’m all right!
