Music Prompt #11: Miranda Lambert “Pink Sun Glasses” #musicchallenge #music #amwriting

I’m a big country music fan and Miranda Lambert has been one of my favorites since she released her first CD. She’s having a concert here in early October and hoping to be able to attend! The song of chosen is a bit whimsical to me. It’s called “Pink Sunglases” and is off her newest album: The Weight of These Wings. Truthfully Lambert has so many great songs on this and her previous albums so it’s hard to choose!

Lambert’s debut album Kerosene (2005) was certified Platinum in the United States including  the singles “Me and Charlie Talking”, “Bring Me Down”, “Kerosene”, and “New Strings.” All four singles were “top 40 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs.”. 

“Her second album, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend,”  came out in 2007. “Three of its singles . . . peaked” as a top 20 on the country songs chart, with “Gunpowder & Lead” becoming her first top 10 entry.”Lambert’s third album, Revolution, was released in “September 2009. Two of its songs–”The House That Built Me” and “Heart Like Mine”–topped the Hot Country Songs chart.” 

Her next album came out in 2011 with the the singles “Over You”, “Fastest Girl in Town”, “Mama’s Broken Heart” and other hit singles. Lambert released her fifth album, that went “Platinum”, in “2014.”

The record won the Grammy Award for Best Country Album, and the album’s lead single “Automatic” reached top 5 on the Country charts. Her sixth studio album, The Weight of These Wings, was released on November 18, 2016. Its one I absolutely love 🙂 (Wikipedia.com)

Miranda Lambert – “Pink Sunglasses”

Lyrics: Miranda Lambert – “Pink Sunglasses” 

I put ’em on when ever I sit down to read the paper

Can’t explain the way they seem to work like magic
I put ’em on to keep it positive

Don’t mean to tell you how to feel

But I’m a firm believer in the power of the plastic

Positive plastic

*****

In my pink sunglasses

Always makes the world look a little bit better

In my pink sunglasses

You can try’em anytime you need a change of the weather

9.99 I’m perfectly disguised

When I’m walking by I wanna roll my eyes

In my Pink sunglasses

Pink sunglasses

Ahh-uhh-uhh

*****

I was looking for some tortoise shells

But these were on sale, next to the disposable cameras

Tried ’em on and suddenly it occurred to me

Buying Little Debbie’s felt a little more glamorous

In the check out line

Don’t I look good

Uh 

*****

In my pink sunglasses

Always makes the world look a little bit better

In my pink sunglasses

You can try’em anytime you need a change of the weather

9.99 I’m perfectly disguised

When I’m walking by I wanna roll my eyes

In my Pink sunglasses

Pink sunglasses

Ahh-uhh-uhh

Ahh-uhh-uhh

*****

I can leave ’em on a beach, at a bar, a boat

But they always reappear in the pocket of my coat

I cant find ’em

They always find me

*****

My pink sunglasses

Always makes the world look a little bit better

In my pink sunglasses

You can try’em anytime you need a change of the weather

9.99 completely polarized

Sometimes I accidentally go to bed at night

In my Pink sunglasses

My pink sunglasses

Ahh-uhh-uhh

Pink sunglasses

Ahh-uhh-uhh

In my pink sunglasses

Uhh

Pink sunglasses

*****
