I wrote this song in a depressive state. I was just mad at the world that's all and my mother came to mind with ice cream and strawberries in the summer.

Story behind the song
I wrote this song in the midst of a nervous breakdown so I don't know too much about it exept I know I was depressed and was drinking a lot in those days. That night with baby crying in the other apartment and the ambulance schreeching outside was little much for me and I'd left my wife. P.S. The track needs cleaning up as you hear the static any takers?. Too be honest I don't even know why it's here I shouldn't of recorded it But it's here now. I was thinking of my mothers when I was kid with ice cream and pies.What do you think?
Lyrics
Last night as I scrambled home neath the moonlight Down the hall through the walls a new born baby cried The sirens outside make me wish to be sober For I feel a new song buildin deep in my heart Marilyn Monroe moon shines bright through my window I turn off the t.v. I turn off the light She know my love has gone to another Bring her back to me you cool summer rain Chorus: Sing me a song of my silver haired mother Strawberries for breakfast and ice cream in june America bleeds for that chuckwagon cowboy Pickin neath the Marilyn Monroe moon God damn the pushman Lord I've had enough script calls for actors who lie like rug Cop killers hi-jackers make peole cry Like the sound of a train whistle moanin good-bye So by the light of the moon a new song I'll write 'Bout cats howlin passion in the still of the night The battle to come will be fought in the boosoms Newfoundland screech makes it all feel allright Words & Music Paul Henry Dallaire Paul Henry Pub.
