Verse
My mama worked for Franklin country
Raised me across the tracks
Your daddy worked for a city school
Didn’t like me seein’ you
The thing about growing up around here
Yellow lights they start to flash
Late at night that’s how we knew
It was time to do the things we’d do
Pre-Chorus
Had no money in our pockets ya’ know
But we had everything that we could want
Chorus
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky
Legends of the night
Fire and smoke
Burnin’ two black lines in my trans-am
You were holdin’ tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don’t shine like city light
And a pawn shop ring ain’t the brightest in the night
But we were silver and gold
Verse
Had a lightning strike about you
Everytime I’d pick you up
Thought we could last forever
And this town would be enough
Pre-Chorus
Had no money in our pockets ya’ know
But we had everything that we could want
Chorus
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky
Legends of the night
Fire and smoke
Burnin’ two black lines in my trans-am
You were holdin’ tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don’t shine like city light
And a pawn shop ring ain’t the brightest in the night
But we were silver and gold
Yeah we were silver and gold
Chorus
We were silver and gold
Wrote our names up in the sky
Legends of the night
Fire and smoke
Burnin’ two black lines in my trans-am
You were holdin’ tight to my hand
And a dime store timepiece
Don’t shine like city light
And a pawn shop ring ain’t the brightest in the night
But we were silver and gold
But we were silver and gold
