Silver & Gold - Kelly Family, The

We had to go and leave our homes
Some died young and 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 the rocking glens
Roving here roving there
Found again love to be there

Silver and gold, silver and gold
Took away my son
Silver and gold, silver and gold
Took away my son, away


Until this day they 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, silver and gold
Took away my son
Silver and gold, silver and gold
Took away my son, away


We had to go and leave our homes
Some died young and some died old
Was 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


Silver and gold, silver and gold
Took away my son
Silver and gold, silver and gold
Took away my son, away

Away, away, away, away, yeah

Museli jsme jít a opustit naše domovy
Někdo zemřel mlád a někdo stár.
Cesty byly dlouhé, ale naše srdce byly silné,
Některým přišlo vhod, že zvítězilo zlo.

Stříbro a zlato, stříbro a zlato
Uneslo vašeho syna.
Stříbro a zlato, stříbro a zlato
Uneslo pryč našeho syna.

Někteří se plavili do jiných zemí
A my jsme začali ve skalnatých roklích.
Toulali jsme se zde, toulali jsme se tam,
Znovu jsme tam našli lásku.

Stříbro a zlato...

Do té doby, neměli smůlu,
Pro hazardní život, je to všechno hra.
Jsme hrdí, že jsme na živu,
A můžeme zazpívat tuto píseň za otcův život.

Stříbro a zlato...
