I've got sunshine on a cloudy day.
When it's cold outside I've got the month of May.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
I've got so much honey the bees envy me.
I've got a sweeter song than the birds in the trees.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, my girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey
Ooooh.
I don't need no money, fortune, or fame.
I've got all the riches baby one man can claim.
I guess you'd say
What can make me feel this way?
My girl (my girl, mt girl)
Talkin' 'bout my girl (my girl).
I've got sunshine on a cloudy day
with my girl.
I've even got the month of May
with my girl [fade]

| TerryS (Another SW) | Posted: Jun 25, 2012 - 19:29 Saw these guys in London - no not that one, the one 2 hours drive from Detroit in the early 70's. Just them and a backing tape, but somehow they made it work. Those suits too. |

| bachbeet | Posted: Jan 05, 2011 - 18:13 Always dug this song. A real classic. A great, great song. Smoky really could write some great tunes. |
| bokey (Up on the tightwire.One sides ice and one is fire.) | Posted: Nov 03, 2010 - 10:46 I had this on a 45 when I was a kid and played it so much I literally wore it out. |

| hchewning | Posted: Apr 26, 2010 - 09:41 An all-time great with a beautiful sound. Thanks for playing it. |
| furaha (Lake Tahoe) | Posted: Jan 21, 2010 - 19:14 Ive often thought if I only had one album to listen to on a deserted island it would the the "Temps" greatest hits. |
| colt4x5 (scrambling.) | Posted: Jan 21, 2010 - 19:12 instantly identifiable on the radio, back when radios had no usb cables to worry about. |
| caregiver (near contentment now) | Posted: Dec 21, 2009 - 09:26 On weekends my friends and I used to spend the night on the (nearly flat) roof of our garage in San Diego. The radio looked like it had been run over by a truck, but it sounded great to us. You can't worry about anything when singing along with music like this. Alright, who's got the cigarettes? |
