Silver Bell Riddles

Verse 1

Salt spray

Washing my worn leather boots

I am digging for some deep brown roots

Tangled

Sun up

Sun down

Walking this hard gravel road

Looking for a place to drop my heavy load

Empty pockets

Full heart

Chorus

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Verse 2

Riddles

Funny how the green bird sings

Watch the way the lucky silver bell rings

Brightly

Maybe I stay

Maybe I go

Living on a prayer that the river won't slow

Tired hands

Strong soul

Chorus

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Bridge

I see the mountain

I climb the mountain

I am the mountain

No more sorrow

No more pain

No more waiting for the summer rain

Higher

Higher

Verse 3

Iron

Heat of the midday yellow sun

Keeping on until the long day is done

Finally

Walking

Talking

Laughing

Checking on the catch in the net

Watching every copper penny I can get

Simple

True

Chorus

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Give me the sugar

Give me the lime

Sweet water flowing

One more time

Outro

One more time

One more time

Down by the dock

Wait for the tide

One more time

One more time
