Silver Lining Lyrics
[Intro]
Up on the mountain, caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain, caught on the rail line
[Verse 1]
My brother, let the hard drugs be
Drink your wine, smoke your weed
My brother, let the hard stuff be
[Pre-Chorus]
And wear your silver lining
Wear it close to your skin
[Chorus]
But if it's the drugs, the women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it all
And tell the ones you love you love them
Teach only what you know, and oh
You better know it well
[Verse 2]
We drove from coast to coast
Down in New Orleans where the levees broke 'cause
You were tripping, I was driving
You were running, I was hiding
And you know I know how that feels
Don't get cheated, kid, just swing from your heels
And if you get carried away
Let the music play you through the pain
[Pre-Chorus]
And wear that silver lining
Wear it close to your skin
[Chorus]
But if it's the drugs, the women, the wine, the weed
The love that took everything I own
Just take it all
And tell the ones you love you love them
Teach only what you know, and oh
You better know it well
[Outro]
Up on the mountain, caught on the rail line
Up on the mountain, caught on the rail line
