This is a lovely and mournful version of the old classic "You Are My Sunshine." It's been recorded by dozens of artists, including Bing Crosby, Andy Williams, Lawrence Welk, Doris Day, and many others. The authors are credited to be Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell, but Jimmie Davis claims that he did not write the song, although he helped arranged to get it published. Some people say that it was written by a guy named Paul Rice of The Rice Brothers. By the way, Jimmie Davis was the governor of Louisiana, two separate times. But, most people believe that the song was written by Oliver Good, from LaGrange, Georgia, which is where my mother was born.
