Silver Threads And Golden Needles Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

I don't want your lonely mansion 

With a tear in every room 

All I want's the love you've promised 

Beneath the halo moon 

But you think I should be happy 

With your money and your name 

And hide myself in sorrows 

While you play your cheatin' game 

Silver threads and golden needles 

Cannot mend this heart of mine 

And I dare not drown my sorrows 

In the warm glow of your mind 

You can't buy my love with money 

'Cause I ain't never was that kind 

Silver threads and golden needles 

Cannot mend this heart of mine 

Silver threads and golden needles 

Cannot mend this heart of mine 

And I dare not drown my sorrows 

In the warm glow of your mind 

You can't buy my love with money 

'Cause I ain't never was that kind 

Silver threads and golden needles 

Cannot mend this heart of mine
