Lyrics and Music by Teresa Healy
(Ottawa, October 19, 2003)
Out in the barn or
Down by the brook
Fishing for suckers
Got her nose in a book
Those Ferguson devils
Race the wagon down the road
Brothers make a racket
With Emily in tow
She’s our little ray of Sunshine
Off you go to play now
Sunshine
She’s our little ray of sunshine
Astride her little pony
There’s a strong-willed girl
Whose mother tries to teach about
The corsets and the curls
Soon she’ll be a daughter
Of the Empire true
A Simcoe County lady
To honour nationhood
But for now, you’re our little ray of Sunshine
