Lyrics

[Chorus]
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around
[Chorus]
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around
[Verse 1]
A-there's a good life I had for free
When you're out in the country
That's what I could use
If I could get away there soon
[Chorus]
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around
[Verse 2]
There's a good life had at sea
If you're not in the navy
That's the life for you
Sail away Raymond, sail away
[Verse 3]
Now most folk, they just bore me
Always imposing, and I'd rather meet a tree
Somewhere out in the country
[Outro]
And it's a sunshine
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me
It's a sunshine life for me
If I could get away from this cloud over me
Seems to just follow me around
It's sunshine
It's sunshine
And it's sunshine
