7up and Chicken Soup

7up and chicken soup Mom feed to us to recoup Feed a fever stuff a cold Nourished health illness stole Was it the hot soup and 7up? That really got us back up Or was the love and care of mom Soothing life's troubles calm.

7up used to be a hangover remedy and something about drinking the clear sodas for sickness,now days too much sugar. Thank you for your comments.
