Lyrics

Silver & Gold

Tempted Sur with silver, tempted Sur with gold And all the earthly pleasures, man could ever hold He came up from Virginia, with his walking cane Stayed out on the sideroads, so know one’d know his name

Some people said he was skinny, he’d just say he was lean When them whiskey drinking mommas catch sight He’s the best they’ve ever seen

Yeah we’re talking midnight, Daddy’s not around Church bells are ringing, without a sound So get on back to Virginia, leave them girls alone Stay out on the side roads, Delta coming home
