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 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!
