Lyric Silvio

Stake my future on a hell of a past
Looks like tomorrow is coming on fast
Ain t complaining bout what i got
Seen better times, but who has not?

Silvio
Silver and gold
Won t buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio
I gotta go
Find out something only dead men know

Honest as the next jade rolling that stone
When i come knocking don t throw me no bone
I m an old boll weevil looking for a home
If you don t like it you can leave me alone

I can snap my fingers and require the rain
From a clear blue sky and turn it off again
I can stroke your body and relieve your pain
And charm the whistle off an evening train

I give what i got until i got no more
I take what i get until i even the score
You know i love you and furthermore
When it s time to go you got an open door

I can tell you fancy, i can tell you plain
You give something up for everything you gain
Since every pleasure s got an edge of pain
Pay for your ticket and don t complain

One of these days and it won t be long
Going down in the valley and sing my song
I will sing it loud and sing it strong
Let the echo decide if i was right or wrong

Silvio
Silver and gold
Won t buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio
I gotta go
Find out something only dead men know
