TOMBSTONE SHADOW
Words and music by John Fogerty Tombstone Shadow,
stretchin' across my path.
Tombstone Shadow,
stretchin' across my path.
Ev'ry time I get some good news
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
Keep me 'way from my tomb. 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
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
For thirteen months or more." Tombstone Shadow,
stretchin' across my path.
Tombstone Shadow,
stretchin' across my path.
Ev'ry time I get some good news
There's a shadow on my back. Copyright © 1969 by Jondora Music
