Ken Boothe - Silver Words

Baby, I'm not joking
And it's not what I'm smoking
I really think you're nice
Don't think I'm kidding you
(Who's kidding me)
And don't think I'm bidding
If silver words are your price

But oh, if you could see, whoa yeah
The change you've made in me
That the angels in the skies
Were envious and surprised
That anyone as nice as you
Would chance with me, whoa yeah
Would chance with me
Let me tell you y'all

Baby, I'm not joking
And it's not what I'm smoking
I really think you're nice
Don't think I'm kidding you
(Who's kidding me)
And don't think I'm bidding
If silver words are your price

But oh if you could see
The change you've made in me
That the angels in the skies
Were envious and surprised
That anyone as nice as you
Would chance with me, no yeah
Would chance with me, babe!
Chance with me

(..)

But oh, if you could see, yeah
The change you've made in me
That the angels in the skies
Were envious and surprised
That anyone as nice as you
Would chance with me, oh yeah
Chance with me, babe

Leave us alone, with our happy home
Leave us alone, with our happy home
Leave us alone, with our happy home..
