No rain and the weather got warm Broke down and I sold my farm Headed for the silver strike I took my wife, Calico silver gave us life You could hear the miners sing When they made their hammers ring You could hear them singing out Oh, when they found Calico silver underground Pave the streets with silver Let the wagons roll Don't those mountains look just like Calico Fifteen years down in the mines I watched the silver shine Listenеd to the big wheels churn They werе turned by Calico Silver that we earned Days were short and the laughter was long Nails in the pine were strong We thought nothing could go wrong Not counting on calico silver to be gone Pave the streets with silver Let the wagons roll Don't those mountains look just like Calico No ore in the richest mine Railroad closed down the line Nail up your windows and your doors Close the stores, Calico Silver is no more Got my wagon ready to go Been a hundred years and more Since we hitched up our team And it seems Calico silver was a dream
