Silver wings (Merle Haggard) sung by Whiskeytown ("A tribute to the Knitters") Bloodshot Records Silver wings shining in the sunlight Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away Leaving me lonely Silver wings slowly fading out of sight Silver wings shining in the sunlight Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away Leaving me lonely Silver wings slowly fading out of sight Don't leave me I cry Don't take that airplane ride But you lock me outta your mind Left me standing here behind Silver wings shining in the sunlight Roaring engines headed somewhere in flight They're taking you away Leaving me lonely Silver wings slowly fading out of sight Slowly fading out of sight Slowly fading out of sight
