  In that soulful old man...sunshine

  bah ba do bah-do do do do do do do do do do...

  She looks so fresh and sweet,keeps herself soft and tender

  No wonder that I can sing a song about my baby

  She looks so healthy,I feel so doggone wealthy,

  No wonder that I can sing a song about my baby

  So happy together,love is better

  In that soulful old man sunshine

  do do do do do do do do do do

She wakes up singing songs,of happy ever afters

Well,let me just tell you 'bout my ever-loving lady

One bright September,I can remember

The morning we walked together laughing in the sunshine

So happy together,love is better

In that soulful old man sunshine

do do do do do do do do do do do

  Hey,old man shine your love on me

  Hey,old man shine your love on me

  Soulful old man sunshine shine your light divine on me

  Hey,Old man shine your love on me...

  Then suddenly the light shines through

  and I see you there standing before me

  Today the world is new I feel so high

  and so far within you, yeah...

  Morning and evening,my love is weaving

  A magical thread of joy that joins our hearts together

la la, la, dah-dah-dah,la la la... (over verse progression to fade)
