"Good Morning, Mister Sun" is a Sesame Street song that Big Bird sings to greet the sun and wish him a good day.

The song first appeared in the street story of Episode 1197, in which Big Bird spends the night out of his nest to welcome the sun when it first rises. Subsequent performances were produced as standalone inserts, with Big Bird greeting his friends as he walks down Sesame Street. These later versions utilize the same music and vocal track. The album releases, however, use the original version.

Big Bird sings the titular lyric in Episode 1624 as he hangs up a faux sun in the yard.
