Tombstone shadow
Stretchin' across my path
Tombstone shadow
Stretchin' across my path
Every 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 my way from my tomb
Oh, oh
Said, I got 13 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
Every 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 13 months or more"
Oh, Lord
Tombstone shadow
Stretchin' across my path
Tombstone shadow
Stretchin' across my path
Every time I get some good news
Ooh, there's a shadow on my back
Oh, oh, Lord
