Silver and Gold (Remastered 2007)

In the shithouse a shotgun
Praying hands hold me down
If only the hunter was hunted
In this tin can town
Tin can town

No stars in the black night
Looks like the sky fall down
No sun in the daylight
Looks like it's chained to the ground
Chained to the ground

The warden said the exit is sold
If you want a way out
Silver and gold
Silver and gold

Broken back to the ceiling
Broken nose to the floor
I scream at the silence
It's crawling, crawls under the door
There's a rope around my neck
And there's a trigger in your gun
Jesus, say something!
I am someone
I am someone

Captains and Kings in the ship's hold
They came to collect
Silver and gold
Silver and gold

I seen the coming and the going
Seen the captains and the Kings
Seen their navy blue uniforms
Seen them bright and shiny things
Bright and shiny things

The temperature is rising
The fever white hot
Mister, I ain't got nothing
But it's more than you've got
Chains no longer bind me
Nor the shackles at my feet
Outside are the prisoners
Inside the free
Set them free
Set them free

A prize fighter in a corner is told
Hit where it hurts, for silver and gold
For silver and gold
