Union Silver - Middle Of The Road

«Look at her"my friend said

«Winding down the road

You can tell by how she looks

She wears a heavy load»

So we stood and watched her

Didn’t say a word

But she must have read our thoughts

For this is what we heard

Union silver has taken my whole life

All my tears through this age means I’m weary now

Lord have mercy on me

Come and look upon me

Make a smile show once more that I’m free

Union silver is gone before it’s made

And I could feel my shoes won’t wear the winter cold

Can you tell me, my friend

Where it’s all gonna end

'Cause union silver doesn’t want to know?

Oh, Lord, I’m

Then we walked on by her

Leaving her alone

Not a word was spoken

As we made our way back home

To this day I see her

See her standing there

In mining town the miner’s wife

With coal dust in their hair

Union silver has taken my whole life

All my tears through this age means I’m weary now

Lord have mercy on me

Come and look upon me

Make a smile show once more that I’m free

Union silver is gone before it’s made

And I could feel my shoes won’t wear the winter cold

Can you tell me, my friend

Where it’s all gonna end

'Cause union silver doesn’t want to know?

Oh, Lord, I’m
