lyrics

Spread a little Sunshine
Key “D’

I can still recall, what a my daddy said to me
Way back when I used - to sit upon his knee
He’d call me to his side, just as the sun went down
With a smile in his eye – he’d say to me real proud

Be kind to the old folks – give‘em lots of love
Tell your children stories from the bible
Keep that dream within your hear t- And never let it go
And spread a little sunshine – with a smile

Well I left home when I had just turned 21
With a song in my heart – I followed the sun
I went from place to place – tryin to find a trace
Of what my daddy told me – while keepin with the pace

But after we had traveled – half way round the world
Seeing all the types of people – from London to Napel
I came to realize – no matter where you go
People’s needs are still the same - So hear these words and so

Chorus

Today when my children – ask for my advise
I sit them down quietly – and tell them with a smile

Chorus
