Silver and gold

The Kelly Family

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, some beat the wrong

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Took away my son
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Took away my son
away

Yeah, some were sailing to other lands
And we were starting to rockin' glance
We're rollin' here, we're rollin' there
Find again life to be glad

Silver and gold....

Until this day they had no shame
For gambler's 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, but we beat the wrong

Sïlver and gold...
