Story Behind The Song
The music for this song was written when I was playing in a country music campground band. We would play it as an instrumental for barn dancing and it would always get the crowd up on their feet. Later I decided to put lyrics to the song and a friend offered to sing it and record it and this is what we have today.
Song Description
The song describes the feeling that
despite what one encounters in each day if we try to start out with a "sunny" attitude everything will ultimately turn out better.

Lyrics
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE
GIVE ME MORNIN' SUNSHINE,
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE
EVEN THO I KNOW THE SUN CAN'T STAY
WHEN I SEE A NEW SUNRISE
MIRRORED IN MY BABY'S EYES
HEAVEN DOESN'T SEEM SO FAR AWAY
I'LL TAKE MORNIN' SUNSHINE
YOU CAN HAVE YOUR MOONSHINE
WHATEVER FLOATS YOUR BOAT WILL BE OK
I WON'T TRY TO RUN YOUR SHOW
ONLY SAYIN' WHAT I KNOW
I'D LIKE MORNIN' SUNSHINE EVERY DAY
GIVE ME MORNIN' SUNSHINE
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE
EVEN THO THE DAWN IS COLD AND GRAY
LET ME LOOK BEYOND THE DAWN
BEFORE THE MORNIN'S COME AND GONE
TO FIND ONE SHININ' GOLD RAY
DANCIN' IN THE SUNSHINE
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE
THAT'S THE WAY WE OUGHT TO START OUR DAY
THEN WHENEVER RAINDROPS FALL
WE CAN SAY WE'VE DONE IT ALL
AND NOT REGRET WE TOOK SOME TIME TO PLAY
LOVE THAT MORNIN' SUNSHINE
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE
SO BEFORE THE SUN CAN SLIP AWAY
GRAB YOUR CHANCE RIGHT AT THE START
SAVE SOME SUNSHINE IN YOUR HEART
TO MAKE A MORNIN' SUNSHINE KIND OF DAY
COUNTRY MORNIN' SUNSHINE KIND OF DAY
