Lyrics
A lot of cobwebs in your head
You’re getting rusty, so you said
You’re feeling badly and everything looks gray
You’re getting worried, yes indeed
I know exactly what you need
A little sunshine will make you feel OKay
Chorus
Give the blues a chase
Find a sunny place
Go and paint your face with sunshine
Pay your doctor bills
Then throw away his pills
You can cure your ills with sunshine
Why don’t you take your teardrops one by one
Before it gets too late
Hang them up out in the sun
And they’ll evaporate
When the troubles start
Pounding at your heart
Rub the injured part with sunshine
