v.1
I don't want your lonely mansions with a chill in every room
I just want the love you promised, beneath the halo'd moon
But you think I should be happy with your money and your name
And pretend that I don't know you while you play your cheatin' game

Chorus:
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 that heart of mine

v.2
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 the fool
To think your style would let you live by the golden rule

Rpt. Ch.
