Whitesnake - Walking In The Shadow.... Lyrics
I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it you can never understand
So many times I thought about it
And now I know just what it means to be a man
Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues
All of my life I've had a strange reputation,
I've been the black sheep of the family all along
I never know if in my heart I'm really guilty
Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues
My father said you're crazy,
He said what you gonna do?
I left with my guitar and said
I'll leave it up to you
I'm gonna live the life I love
And live the life I choose,
And I'm walking in the shadow of the blues
I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it I will tell you once again
All of my life I've been caught up in a crossfire,
'Cos I've been branded with the devil mark of cain
Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues,
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues

Whitesnake Walking In The Shadow.... Comments
Not as good as Culture Club.
One of the best songs that Coverdale ever sang. Did he fire the entire rest of the band after recording it? Or was that Here I go Again, from Saints & Sinners?
Great song
A great song by Coverdale & co
Love this tape I had it once classic Whitesnake I love this cover so sexy
David Coverdale, Bernie Marsden, Micky Moody etc
This is an ultra classic
Good album cover
Kommt geil rüber , die Verknüpfung von Blues und Hard-Rock.(haben viele gute Songs gemacht, leider aber auch ins Kommerzielle abgerutscht) Neben Ronnie James einer der besten und herausragensden Sänger in diesem Genre.
Better stuff than what was released later.
B’z LIVE-GYM 2015 EPIC NIGHTのOPSEでした!
Simplesmente fantástica!.
This is a great song
why do great bands be assholes change lineup its bullshit if someone dies ok other wise greedy bastards....
yeah sounds like shit without bass player who played with ozzy and guitar extrodinare randy rhodes..
walking in the shadow of the blue blood illuminati mtfers
Coverdale wow
Luigi Calicante Yes Yes rock and rock!'
16 people like Justin Bieber
Maurauder 67 it’s definitely not this metalhead chick here
Saints & Sinners is last "true" Whitesnake album i think`!!
Seen this bsnd 7 times and they get better and better
Only up to '83..Lost it without Paice ,Lord , Murray Marsden and Moody.
the best best best best !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Predrag Lukic ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡all replies¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
One of the best hard rock songs ever. The energy of the blues
adoro esses caras.😊😊
Uh……What a groove!!
Mr.Coverdale`s amazing voice !
Totally my favourite Whitesnake song. So much better than that bullshit David Geffen turned them into.
Now thats an album cover!
That cover art would look sick on an American truck, or a fighter jet.
@Megadriver Oh Hellll yeah!!
Definitely true
Planning to get that tattood on my person someplace :p
For me, it's Whitesnake's best ever song, especially the Live In the Heart of the City version. Saw them in Bristol 2 or 3 times late 70s, early 80s, their best era, with Messrs Coverdale/Lord/Paice/Marsden/Moody/Murray.
you gotta understand....
Super song!!!!!
could be Snake (Metal gear solid V's )theme song LOL.
Classic bluesy Whitesnake before they sold out to MTV! Glad I saw them in this era. Lord and Powell RIP. And, yes, I know it's Paicey on this album...
Actually Ian Paice wasn't on the album, it was David Dowle.
This was their opening song many times!
I think Bernie Marsden was playing the Beast at that time.
Fantastic Jam!
Great song by Whitesnake ! ! !
Walking In The Shadow Of The Blues.

@bacalex61 opening band >>....OZZY !!
One of their best songs
I can hear Ritchie ripping a great solo on this song...
For sure, one of the band's greatest songs -- love it
Here is the beauty of this band... Simply, one the most special rock bluesy songs in history!
I so so so love this song. crushing bad ass
Whitesnake at their best! Love the song and the album.
awesome whitesnake song, i have walked the shadow of the blues so many times before, made me see what it means to be a man. i love the album this comes to my favourite whitesnake album is lovehunter.
+Jamie Warrior Warlord McCallum word brother
when the band trully walked with music
Back before Coverdale turned the band into another Journey wannabee
very true
@David Wood
me too but anther mennber hate Coverdale www
SOOOOO CORRECT.........Larry......you are right on it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My favorite Whitesnake song, yet so unknown.
One person is walking in the shadow of the Justin Bieber's music.
This is so good!
tnx friend, i'm just honest and i dont give a fuck about thumb up i like every whitesnake song and i haven't found their bad song
respect from croatia
and yes, i'm going to see them in zagreb on 15.6. this year and i'm so excited
true whitesnake is from the beggining to nowdays
Damn it...love that ol´days, this track is so damn fuckin awesome..love it - Cheers!
great music, true rock'n'roll..
I love the blues, and I love glam... so, I think the 'snake's one of the best rock bands ever.
Me personally, I'm walking in the shadow of the BOOZE!!!
they continued to be a great band....to my opinion it's only natural to evolve and adapt
On my way to work in backed up traffic on the motorway in pissing rain (again) in the U.K. whole car vibrating and the effect is the same :-).
Thanks A.H. Cat! Great Stuff! .....BYU
this was more a rebirth of Deep Purple - some great rock and roll - too bad they glammed it up later
This is the true Whitesnake. Not the glam/big hair metal version from 1987 onwards.
On the freeway, sun is hot and there's a bit of wind. Stereo up to stars and pedal to the floor. Amazing. ;)
I FKN LOVE THIS BAAAAAANANA
awesome
