Gunn sings :
The Mikado - Three little maids
Libretto by William S. Gilbert
Music by Sir Arthur Sullivan
Sung by Yum-Yum, Peep-Bo, and Pitti-Sing
THE THREE
Three little maids from school are we,
Pert as a school-girl well can be,
Filled to the brim with girlish glee,
Three little maids from school !
YUM-YUM
Everything is a source of fun. (Chuckle)
PEEP-BO
Nobody’s safe, for we care for none ! (Chuckle)
PITTI-SING
Life is a joke that’s just begun ! (Chuckle)
THE THREE
Three little maids from school !
THE THREE
Three little maids who, all unwary,
Come from a ladies’ seminary,
Freed from its genius tutelary
Three little maids from school !
Three little maids from school !
YUM-YUM
One little maid is a bride, Yum-Yum—
PEEP-BO
Two little maids in attendance come—
PITTI-SING
Three little maids is the total sum.
THE THREE
Three little maids from school !
Three little maids from school !
YUM-YUM
From three little maids take one away.
PEEP-BO
Two little maids remain, and they—
PITTI-SING
Won’t have to wait very long, they say—
THE THREE
Three little maids from school !
Three little maids from school !
THE THREE
Three little maids who, all unwary,
Come from a ladies’ seminary,
Freed from its genius tutelary—
Three little maids from school !
Three little maids from school !

You Are My Sunshine
Written by former Louisiana State Governor Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell.
Copyright 1940 and 1977 by Peer International Corporation.
This song is one of two official songs for the State of Louisiana
You Are My Sunshine
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away
The other nite, dear,
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
When I awoke, dear,
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried.
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
I’ll always love you
And make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me
To love another
You’ll regret it all some day ;
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
You told me once, dear
You really loved me
And no one else could come between
But now you’ve left me
And love another
You have shattered all my dreams ;
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
Louisiana my Louisiana
the place where I was borne.
White fields of cotton
— green fields clover,
the best fishing
and long tall corn ;
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
Crawfish gumbo and jambalaya
the biggest shrimp and sugar cane,
the finest oysters
and sweet strawberries
from Toledo Bend to New Orleans ;
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You’ll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don’t take my sunshine away.
