CCR Tombstone Shadow 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.

Said, I got thirteen months of bad luck,
Bound to be some pain.
Don't you do no travelin',
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!
