Creedence Clearwater Revival - Tombstone Shadow Lyrics
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.
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,
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!

*Arquimedes Puccio* : ¡¿QUE HICISTE?! ¡¿QUE HICISTE?!. La puta que te pario volve al auto
Yes. Their musical talent certainly influenced a generation of people, not just americans.......to think a little deeper....whole you cant hold back dancing a jig to any of ty heir most popular tunes of the era!!!
These 4 blew the 4 Beatles away
"Quédese tranquilo Naum, no, no, es peor Naum, quédese tránquilo..."

Just,meat & taters rock & roll at it's best. ROOSTER😆

John fogherty is the man!
Once upon a time in Hollywood right?
CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL, FANTASTIC AND UNFORGETABLE BAND, TIME WHEN I WAS TEENAGER, NOW I AM 71, CCR FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gaassaakkk
SWAMP MUSIC!
♥🎧🎶 2019
Very Crazy!
This song is about penis.
John Fogerty should get the band back together before he has his own tombstone.
Often imitated but never duplicated. There was and can be ONLY ONE……..CCR.
Tanta música boa do Creedence e o povo só conhece “João botou o melão no gol “ ....
John Fogherty .... woooow 😍😘
Rocknroll at it's very best ! Thank you CCR !
Why did Franklin grahaham cross the road ? ..because He was chasing another chicken?
Lo máximo superior alos Beatles
I know what blessed is Listening to CCR since 69
Is is me or did ccr get lazy on this one. lol
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS SONG!!! THANK YOU MOM FOR HAVING INTRODUCED ME TO THEIR MUSIC!
the only shadow isa assholes
67 nubs voting
I love how the vocal line locks in with the snare on the 'Said I got' bit. Clever.
La cancion de la escena de la muerte de Emilio Naum en "El Clan"
Por tu culpa Naum fue asesinado yo nunca habia fallado en uno de mis secuestro pareciamos princiapantes
Inigualables! CCR for ever!
One of my favorite riffs
Just,meat & taters rock & roll at it's best. ROOSTER😆
Why would you dislike this
Feelin like all of that*
I've listen to ccr for 25 years and it's amazing to discover new songs I've never heard. Yeah baby tombstone shadow is cool baby.
blues genre this song
That's no fucking blues you moron.
Went to see a tribute CCR band in Bilston Robin2 the closest that I will get to see the greatest band that ever lived, they were brilliant. Credence Clearwater Review the name of the band, if you get a chance to see them take it. Fantastic night.
By far by far they are the best band that will ever be
50 yrs five dollars was a lot of money in the US, and more so in the Deep South
Bootlegging music by bayou and moonshine
Hell yeah
Fogerty always had that unique stripped down approach to his singing , but I think this song along with "As Long as I can see The Light" really showcased that rawness on a whole different level.
Thumps up if argentine movie the clan brought you here!!!🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸🎸
~~~ What feel in the guitar playing! The whole band is solid, but John Fogerty was the most talented front man in America. Bar none, including Jim Morrison. Janis an equal. The combo of gutsy perfect vocals combined with the most finely crafted guitar runs. All time great ~~~
i know. he is the perfect package
mike hiers very well put, Mike! None better then the amazing, John Fogerty!
