Silvio lyrics

Stake my future on a hell of a past
Looks like tomorrow is a coming on fast
Ain t complaining about 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 and knockin 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.

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

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 further more
When it is time to go you got an open door.

I can tell your fancy I can tell your plain
You give something up for ev rything you gain
Since ev ry 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 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.
