Pink Lemonade

Story Behind The Song

I was dating a recovering alcoholic. He loved sweet tart drinks. Besides being a great friend to him I served him this when he was blue.

Song Description

Pink Lemonade is a wonderful drink when alcohol is not allowed. Really, it's more about who makes and serves it. A great shoulder makes most beverages taste better.

Lyrics

PINK LEMONADE c. 1998 by Sally Fingerett

Some days are a journey, long hauls,
backroads into town
Where the ditches and the gravel pits,
take you by surprise, you go tumbling down
Your boots are torn and tattered,
your bad mood came ready made
Won?t you sit down, put your feet up,
I?m gonna give you pink lemonade,
Pink Lemonade.

Some days are lonely,
no matter who gets in your face
Everybody itchin? and scratchin?
needing you on every page
Your mind is lost, tossed, and scattered from
the demands they have made
Won?t you lay your head on my shoulder,
gonna give you pink lemonade,
Pink Lemonade

CHORUS:
Gonna take the yellow from the sun,
cool cool green in the shade
We got marshmallow fluff floatin?
in the blue sky, my o my
When you need a drink, try a little pink lemonade,
Pink Lemonade

Some days peoples' words
seem to come out all wrong
They might mean to be nice,
but they wound you cause you sorrow and harm
You soul is beat up and battered,
they tried to take your truth away,
Well I honestly believe in you,
and the power of pink lemonade.
Pink Lemonade

CHORUS:
