You Are My Sunshine "You Are My Sunshine" is a popular song written by Jimmie Davis and Charles Mitchell[1] and first recorded in 1939. It has been declared one of the state songs of Louisiana because of its association with Davis, a country music singer and governor of the state in the years 1944–1948 and 1960–1964.
