Lyrics

Climb up on my knee, Sonny boy
Though you're only three, Sonny boy
You've no way of knowing
There's no way of showing what you mean to me, Sonny boy
When there are grey skies
I don't mind the grey skies
You make them blue, Sonny boy
Friends may forsake me
Let them all forsake me
I still have you Sonny boy
You're sent from heaven, and I know your worth
You made a heaven for me here on earth
When I'm old and grey, dear
Promise you won't stray, dear
For I love you so, Sonny boy
When there are grey skies
I don't, I don't mind grey skies
You make them blue, Sonny boy
Friends, friends may forsake me
Let them all, let them all forsake me
I still have you, Sonny boy
You're sent from heaven, and I know your worth
You've made a heaven for me here on earth
And the angels grew lonely
Took you because they were lonely
An' I'm a-lonely too, Sonny boy
Written by: Al Jolson, Buddy DeSylva, Lew Brown, Ray Henderson
