C5
It was Cinco de Mayo
E5
Pillow case on his head
C5
No more breathing time
E5
An ambulance sped
C5
It sped round every corner
E5
Calling out his name

Chorus
A5
Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
G5
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
A5
Ate icecream in a desert dream
G5
Got love in father seeing you
A5
Too hot inside to hot outside
G5
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
A5
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
G5
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade



Tim and tina were my parents' names
They got engaged they were inflamed
Seduced by the lie of butterflies
How they shimmer, how they glimmer
Those butterflies

We seven kids, we almost died
Nearly put to death
But lightning strike
Instead there was hot pink
Flashes in the sky
We climb the rocks in snowing rain
In search of magic power

To heal our mother's pain

Chorus
Shot a rabbit from the back seat window
Sat and watched in the summer corn row
Ate icecream in a desert dream
Got love in father seeing you
Too hot inside to hot outside
Lazy days when you said just go for a ride
We'll sail on Spirit Lake,
Me, my pappy, and his lemonade
