Wanda Jackson - Silver Threads and Golden Needles

I don't want your lonely mansion

With a tear in every room

I just want the love you promised

Beneath the haloed moon

But you think I should be happy

With your money and your name

And pretend that I don't notice

While you play your cheatin' game

Silver threads and golden needles

Can't patch up this heart of mine

And I'll never drown my sorrows in

The warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money

For I never was that kind

Silver threads and golden needles

Can't patch up this heart of mine

I grew up in faded gingham

Where love is a sacred thing

You grew up in silk and satin

Where love's a passin' game

I know now you never loved me

And I know I was a fool

To think your cry would let you

Live by the golden rule

Silver threads and golden needles

Can't patch up this heart of mine

And I'll never drown my sorrows in

The warm glow of your wine

You can't buy my love with money

For I never was that kind

Silver threads and golden needles

Can't patch up this heart of mine
