Siver Treads and Golden Needles |
| I don’t want your lonely mansion |
| With a tear in every room |
| I just want the love you promised |
| Beneath the halo’d moon |
| But you think I should be happy |
| With your money and your name |
| And pretend that I don’t notice |
| While you play your cheatin' games |
| Silver threads and golden needles |
| Can’t patch up this heart of mine |
| And I never drown my sorrow |
| In the warm glow of your wine |
| You can’t buy my love with money |
| For I never was that kind |
| Silver threads and golden needles |
| Can’t patch up this heart of mine |
| I grew up in in faded gingham |
| Where love is a sacred thing |
| You grew up in silk and satin |
| Where love is a passin' game |
| I know now you never loved me |
| And I know I was the fool |
| To think your cry would let you |
| Live by the golden rule |
| Silver threads and golden needles |
| Can’t patch up this heart of mine |
| And I never drown my sorrow |
| In the warm glow of your wine |
| You can’t buy my love with money |
| For I never was that kind |
| Silver threads and golden needles |
| Can’t patch up this heart of mine |
