Silver & Gold

(Kelfam/Kelfam)
|
(Lead Vocal: Johnny/Paddy)
|
|
We had to go and leave our homes
|
Some died young some died old
|
The roads were long, but our hearts were strong
|
Some went down to beat the wrong
|
|
Silver and gold, silver and gold
|
Took away your son (repeat verse)
|
|
And some left sailing to other lands
|
And we were starving through the rocking glens
|
Roving here, roving there
|
Found again, love to be there
|
|
Silver and gold...
|
|
Until this day we had no shame
|
For gamblers' life, it's all a game
|
We are proud to be alive
|
To sing this song for father's life
|
|
Silver and gold...
|
|
We had to go and leave our homes
|
Some died young some died old
|
The roads were long, but our hearts were strong
|
Some went down, oh, we beat the wrong
|
|
Silver and gold...
