Creedence Clearwater Revival Tombstone Shadow Lyrics

Tombstone shadow, stretching across my path
Tombstone shadow, stretching across my path
Every time I get some good news,
Oh!!!
There's a shadow on my back.

Saw the gypsy man, 'way down in San Ber'doo
Well!!! I saw the gypsy man, way down in San Ber'doo
Five dollars on the table,
Oh!!!
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 traveling; Fly in no machines.

Tombstone shadow, stretching across my path
Everytime I get some good news,
Oh!!!
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;
Oh!!!
For thirteen months or more;
Oh, Lord!!!

Tombstone shadow, stretching across my path
Tombstone shadow, stretching across my path
Everytime I get some good news,
Oh!!!
There's a shadow on my back
Oh!!! oh, Lord!!!
Oh, Lord!!!
