I Got the Sun in the Mornin' (and the Moon at Night) is a bright show tune from Irving Berlin's 1946 musical Annie Get Your Gun. It was originally performed by Ethel Merman on Broadway and released on the 1946 original Broadway cast recording. The song tells a bit of Annie Oakley's sunny outlook, with the line that she has the sun in the morning and the moon at night and is happy with the simple gifts of love and daily joy. It became a popular standard with hit 1946 recordings by Les Brown with Doris Day and by Artie Shaw with Mel Tormé, and has since been recorded by artists such as Betty Hutton, Bernadette Peters, Judy Garland, Dean Martin, and June Christy with the Stan Kenton Orchestra. The tune is a quintessential musical theatre number and has even appeared in popular culture on TV shows like Cheers and Hawaii Five-0.
