“You Are My Sunshine” Traditional version: OK, we had to add some commentary here…
“Did you think this was a sweet little love
song, something your mom might have sung to you as a lullaby? Well, the chorus
is deceptive. Listen to the verses and you’ll find this traditional folk song —
which has been recorded by the Carter Family, Johnny Cash, and many others — is
narrated by someone begging the love of their life not to leave them for
someone else. The cheery chorus is turned on its head into a painful lament in
the context of the heartbroken verses. “But if you leave me and love another /
You’ll regret it all someday,” the song warns before launching into the
plaintive begging of the well-known chorus.”
