Too Much Sun

Performed by Old Sand Mill & Friends

Music by Chip Miller, Michael Reynolds & Jerry Douglas 

Produced and arranged by Chip Miller & Earle Mankey

The sun goes up

And the sun goes down

And the Sun never stops going round and round

Makes you over-easy

He makes you well-done

Don't be cooking up trouble

With too much sun

You’re not a chicken

Or a pancake stack

Or a ball-park sausage

With a shirt on your back

You just want happy

And you just want fun

Ah, but you’re cooking up trouble

With too much sun

The sun goes up

And the sun goes down

The sun never stops going round and round

Now the sun is a fellow

With a lot to do

And he likes your pleasure

When he shines on you

But you’ll cry if you fry

And that’s no fun

Because you’re cooking up some trouble

With too much sun

The sun goes up

The sun goes down

The sun never stops going round and round

The sun goes up

The sun goes down

The sun never stops going round and round

The sun is a friend to everyone

If the sun could talk,

He’d tell you, “Please, don’t burn”

Now that you know

You got to tell someone

Don’t be cooking up trouble

With too much sun.

The sun goes up

The sun goes down

The sun never stops going round and round

The sun goes up

The sun goes down

The sun never stops going round and round

Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun Going Round

Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun, Sun Going Round

Seek the shade

It's very hot outside

Seek the shade

It's very hot outside
