Silver and Gold
My mama worked for Franklin County
Raised me across the tracks
Your daddy worked for a city school
Didn't like me seeing you
The thing about growin' up around here
Yellow lights, they start to flash
Late at night, that's how we knew
It was time to do the things we'd do
Had no money in our pockets, ya know (pockets, ya know)
But we had everything that we could want
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky (oh, yeah!)
Legends of the night (oh, yeah!)
Fire and smoke
Burnin' two black lines in my Trans Am
You were holdin' tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don't shine like city light (shine like city light)
And a pawn shop ring, ain't the brightest in the night
But we were silver and gold (silver and gold, silver and gold, silver and gold)
Had a lightnin' strike about you
Every time I'd pick you up
Thought we could last forever
And this town would be enough
Had no money in our pockets, ya know (pockets, ya know)
But we had everything that we could want
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky (oh, yeah!)
Legends of the night (oh yeah!)
Fire and smoke
Burnin' two black lines in my Trans Am
You were holdin' tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don't shine like city light (shine like city light)
And a pawn shop ring, ain't the brightest in the night
But, we were silver and gold (silver and gold, silver and gold)
Yeah, we were silver and gold
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh)
(Yeah, we were silver and gold)
(Whoa-oh-oh-oh), (ooh)
(whoa-oh-oh-oh), (yeah)
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky (oh, yeah!)
Legends of the night (oh, yeah!)
Fire and smoke
Burnin' two black lines in my Trans Am
You were holdin' tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don't shine like city light (don't shine like city light)
And a pawn shop ring, ain't the brightest in the night
But, we were silver and gold (silver and gold, silver and gold)
(Yeah, we were silver and gold)
But, we were silver and gold
(Mm)
