Lyrics Tomstone Shadow - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Tomstone Shadow

Tombstone shadow, stretchin' across my path.
tombstone shadow, stretchin' across my path.
ev’ry time i get some good news, ooh,
there’s a shadow on my back.
Saw the gypsy man, 'way down in san berdoo.
said, i saw the gypsy man, 'way down in san berdoo.
five dollars on the table, ooh,
keep me 'way from my tomb.
oh!
oh!
Said i got thirteen months of bad luck,
bound to be some pain.
don’t you do no trav’lin',
fly in no machines.
tombstone shadow, stretchin' across my path.
Ev’ry time i get some good news, ooh,
there’s a shadow on my back.
The man gave me a luck charm, cost five dollars more,
said, «put some on your pillow, and put some on your door.»
he said, «take a long vacation, ooh,
for thirteen months or more.»
oh, lord!
Tombstone shadow, stretchin' across my path.
tombstone shadow, stretchin' across my path.
ev’ry time i get some good news, ooh,
there’s a shadow on my back.
Oh, oh, lord!
oh, lord!
