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
Oh! Oh!
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!
