lirik lagu chris wall - silver hair and silver wings
(verse)
so just why they called this happy hour
well i feel like crying out loud
‘cause if we called it cheap drinks for losers, joe said
we wouldn’t have much of a crowd
(verse)
on a barstool sits a man with a guitar in his hand
and he’s mixing up the blues
said metaphors and boots
and his version of the truth is barely any proof
he’s just trying to raise a ramp where he used to raise the roof
(verse)
and the places that he plays these days
are filled with empty chairs
and the stations that once played his songs
are long gone off the air
stacks of unsold a tracks sit on his trailer floor
and the places that he used to pack
have closed their swinging doors
(chorus)
silver hair and silver wings, hear the saddle cowboy sing
for the lights and would you catch a falling star?
on the goal of one big hit
now it’s strictly drinks and tips for which he sings
silver hair and silver wings
(verse)
and he dreams that he’s back at that 3 teardrops tavern
and he’s laughing with little john and boone
adored by the best looking women in dallas
they knew every word of every tune
(verse)
but the whiskey stained his portrait and graveled up his mind
but his voice still sounds like gl-ss packs on sweet ol’ 59
some folks think he’s stubborn
some say he just can’t say
the difference between quittin and knowin when to leave
(chorus)
silver hair and silver wings, hear the saddle cowboy sing
for the lights and would you catch a falling star?
on the goal of one big hit
now it’s strictly drinks and tips for which he sings
silver hair and silver wings
(bridge)
and he cries 3 little teardrops for some d-mn ol’ bar room
closed 15 years ago
and he’s heartsick and lonesome
and he’s stuck on that road sign
and years are beginning to show
(verse)
in each man there’s a heart
and this man bares a head
wasn’t all that smart
the others half near dead
as he signs he chokes down
the tears of a clown
and he feels like that joke has been going well around
(chorus)
silver hair and silver wings, hear the saddle cowboy sing
for the lights and would you catch a falling star?
on the goal of one big hit
now it’s strictly drinks and tips for which he sings
silver hair and silver wings
silver hair and silver wings
