Open Up Your Heart (and Let The Sunshine In) Lyrics - Kitty Wells

Open up your heart and let the sunshine in 

My mother told me something that everyone should know 

It's all about the devil and I learned to hate him so 

She said he causes trouble when you let him in the room 

He will never ever leave you if your heart is filled with gloom 

So let the sunshine in face it with a grin smilers never lose and frowners never win 

So let the sunshine in face it with a grin open up your heart and let the sunshine in 

[ guitar ] 

When you are unhappy the devil wears a grin 

But oh! he starts to running when the light comes pouring in 

I know he'll be unhappy 'cos I'll never wear a frown 

Maybe if we keep on smiling he'll get tired of hanging round 

So let the sunshine in... 

[ steel ] 

If I forget to say my prayers the devil jumps with glee 

But oh! he feels so awful when he sees me on my knee 

So if you're full of trouble and you never seem to win 

Just open up your heart and let the sunshine in 

So let the sunshine in...
