THE OLD MASTER PAINTER


(Actually a medley of two songs:
THE OLD MASTER PAINTER and YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE)

The Old Master Painter
(H. Gillespie/B. Smith; J. Davis)

That old master painter from the faraway hills
painted the violets and the daff-o-dills
He put the purple in the twilight haze
then did a rainbow for the rainy days
Dreamed up the murals on the blue summer skies
painted the devil in my darlin's eyes
Captured the dreamer with a thousand thrills
The old master painter from the faraway hills

Then came his masterpiece and when he was through
He smiled down from heaven and he gave me you
What a beautiful job on that wonderful day
That old master painter from the hills far away

You Are My Sunshine
(J. Davis and C. Mitchell)

You were my sunshine, my only sunshine
You made me happy when skies were grey
You'll never know, dear, how much I loved you
How could you take my sunshine away
