Sonny Boy

Al Jolson · The Jazz Singer [2012]

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 gray skies

I don't mind the gray 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 gray dear

Promise you won't stray dear

For I love you so Sonny Boy



When there are gray skies

I don't mind gray 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've made a heaven

For me here on earth



And the angels grew lonely

Took you because they were lonely

I'm lonely too, Sonny Boy
