I wanna hear it again just the way it was back then
When my mama sang to me it was love and harmony
In that old time sunshine song

With the mellowing of years we look back and see the tears
With happy times and ties that made us strong
We all worked in the fields it was love and it was real
Like an old time sunshine song
I wanna hear it again
[ banjo ]
I don't get back much these days since mama passed away
It's still the place I feel that I belong
So I go there in my mind hoping Lord that I might find
That old time sunshine song
I wanna hear it again
[ harmonica ]
I wanna hear it again
