I wondered myself because I nicknamed my grandson Sonny Boy. He is a man now, but for some reason I always called him "My Sonny Boy" which is funny because Al Jolson died several years before I was born. Anyway, when I looked for the lyrics I began sending them to him as a way to cheer him up sometimes. So today I went searching for the history of the song and I found it (link above). If the link has expired, look up the Al Jolson movie "The Singing Fool".
Ray Henderson wrote the music to Sonny Boy and Lew Brown and Buddy G. De Sylva wrote the lyrics for Al Jolsen. Check out the movie "The Best Things in Life Are Free" (1956). There is a scene in the movie where the three are writing the score to "Sonny Boy" for Jolsen. The movie received an Oscar nomination for Lionel Newman in the category of Best Music, Scoring of a Musical Picture according to Answers.com and also IMBd.com. Also nominated were The King and I; The Eddy Duchin Story; High Society; and Meet Me in Las Vegas. The winner was the King and I.
