dolly parton - silver and gold lyrics
well i met an old man walking down the street
his clothes were torn and tattered with sandals on his feet
and i stopped to help him and lend him a hand
he said i love you so much but you must understand
silver and gold might buy you a home
but things of this world they won’t last you long
and time has a way of turning us old
and time can’t be bought back with silver and gold
and he said to me let’s rest for a while
cause i have some good news to share with you child
he said you can’t change this old world the people need to know
that a dear savior died here a long long time ago
and silver and gold might buy you a home…
his eyes shown like diamonds and his smile was heaven sent
his hair was long and flowing and his back was slightly bent
and i knew he knew it cause that day i changed
as i watched him walk on i forgot to get his name
he said silver and gold can’t buy you a home
when this life has ended and your time is gone
but you can live in a world where you’ll never grow old
and things can’t be bought there with silver and gold
and time can’t be bought back with silver and gold
