Lyrics
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!
