Soon as the sun goes down we're gonna take a little walk outside
Down past the river, down by the railroad tracks
You and I all alone beneath the glow of the city lights
High octane and a book of matches cast a pretty glow against the sky
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
I saw on TV where this guy outside of St. Paul shot up a diner for no reason
At all
I swear on my life I wouldn't want to use a gun
But a little fire now and then never hurt anyone
Black and gold, black and gold, black and gold, black and gold
You in your dress, me in my father's suit
We're gonna join hands as the colors begin to shoot
Wait until the flames are burning hogh
Cause I wanna prove my love to you against the midnight sky
Black and gold
