Lyrics
Stake my future on a hell of a past
Looks like tomorrow is comin on fast
Ain't complainin bout what I got
Seen better times but then who has not

Silvio, silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio, I got to go
Go find out somethin only dead men know

Honest as the next jade rollin that stone
When I come a-knockin don't ya throw me no bone
I'm an ol 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 boy and ease your pain
I can charm the whistle off an evening train

Silvio, silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio, I got to go
Go find out somethin only dead men know

Give what I got 'til I got no more
Gonna take what I get until I even the score
You know I love you and furthermore
When it's time to go you got an open door

I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain
You give something up for everything you gain
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain
Pay for your ticket now and don't complain

Silvio, silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio, I got to go
Go find out somethin only dead men know

One of these days and it won't be long
Goin down in the valley, gonna sing my song
I will sing it loud and I will sing it strong
Let the echoes decide if I was right or wrong

Silvio, silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio, I got to go
Go find out somethin only dead men know

Silvio, silver and gold
Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold
Silvio, I got to go
Go find out somethin only dead men know
Find out something only dead men know...
