Good Morning, Mister Sun

Sesame Street · Other Songs - Sesame Street

Good morning,

Mister Sun,

Welcome to the sky-

Shine on all the

Little creatures

As you're passing by.

Stop yawning,

Mister Sun,

Time to make a day.

Brightening every

Little corner

As you go your way.



The moon and stars are

Fine at night.

But when it's day,



We need your light

So, we say, "Keep shining,

Mister Sun,

Smiling in the blue."

You'll see all the

Little children,

Smiling back at you.

And birds and bees,

The flowers, the trees,

The whole wide world

Will seem to say,

"Good Morning,

Good Morning,"

Mister Sun.

Good Morning,

Have a nice day.
